I feel like there are talks of a “California Exodus” that happens every 10 years.

But with the pandemic, people’s loss of faith in CA politics, transplants moving back home, and people opting to move either to more suburban cities or out of state for cheaper housing options because they’ll be WFH permanently, do you guys think that this time around, a “California Exodus” actually has legs?

As a native Angeleno, I’m interested to see how much the city will change after this pandemic.

I put in an offer of 1MM last night for a listing of 900k. With 15 other offers, my agent puts our chances at 30% at best. LA RE is terrible

I hope it happens so I can enjoy more space. Too many people

The one thing that LA has over many other destinations is the weather. Can’t really beat it (Florida weather is amazing, but those hurricanes and rain). I imagine there will be an influx of wealthy/tech NY/SF folks who don’t mind the high prices (and will keep prices high).

You’ll probably see an exodus of certain people in certain classes and job industries. COL is just too high for folks that have to basically start over.

As someone said, weather is too good here. There may be some exodus...but I don’t think it will be material.

Hi ! Looking for advice. I’ve been with a company in BC for 2.5 years, started support role, promoted to smb AE a year ago. salary is 65k with uncapped commission.
