Coastal Cities Priced Out Low-Wage Workers. Now College Graduates Are Leaving, Too.

[BidenPresident]

The college graduates who fill white-collar jobs in the San Francisco area began to leave in growing numbers about a decade ago. More and more have moved to other parts of the country — an accelerating outflow of educated workers that, in a poorer part of America, might be thought of as brain drain.

And in the New York area, long a net exporter of graduates, swelling losses have reinforced the trend: Educated workers, dating to even before the pandemic, have been migrating away from the most prosperous parts of the country.

Those who can escape dystopian D destroyed cities do leave.

When conservative economic business practices produce more and better paying jobs, those 'liberals' will leave the liberal areas........

we just need to reinforce the reality that liberal economic practices are doomed to fail

San Francisco has a population of around 800,000 as of the 2020 census.

After working out the math I’ve projected that their population will drop to 300,000 by 2030.

That is a 60% decline

The next city losing the most is New York at around a 45% decline.

The states projected to increase in populations are Arizona, Texas, and Florida and Minnesota for some reason I can’t figure out

I hate it. Our population is increasing daily…so much I am considering leaving. Fortunately I have enough land bought up around me I don’t have to see any neighbors.

They are driving exactly where the WOKE Suicide Cult aims to go, there has been almost no resistance.
