I wonder how the purple haired screaming banshee Bay Area homeless advocates with their "forever jobs" (provided they make sure the homeless crisis is never solved) would react to the suggestion that Bay Area homeless consider:
To break out of homelessness, look to the following specific regions and advantages:
1. Texas (Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas)
The Draw:
Booming regional economies and the absence of a state income tax mean you keep more of your paycheck.
Cost of Living: Housing markets like San Antonio and Houston sit well below national averages.
Success Factor: Houston, for example, successfully reduced its homeless population by over 60% using a centralized, rapid-rehousing strategy that quickly connects individuals to jobs and subsidized housing.
2. Ohio (Cleveland and Columbus)
The Draw: Excellent public transit and a massive manufacturing and supply-chain hub.
Cost of Living: Median rent and home prices are consistently ranked among the most affordable in the nation.
3. Indiana (Indianapolis and South Bend)
The Draw: Centralized location with high employment demand in healthcare, manufacturing, and logistics.
Cost of Living: Cost of living is generally 8 to 10 percent lower than the national average, making it easy to stretch an entry-level wage.
* The San Francisco Bay Area ranks as the most expensive metropolitan region in the entire United States, driven by a regional cost of living that sits between 55% to 67% higher than the national average. Cancel my subscription to the Resurrection
