#3 P2k, when I moved to Marietta it wasn't so desirable to me. Now with the Braves stadium here my rent went from $900/month to over 1500. Maybe we should add in the greed to land lords as part of the problem.

#4 ...don't forget the greed of politicians who have no problem raising property taxes and implementing increasing $$$ regulations upon rental property. Try freezing those and watch the crying.

#5 Tell me about it Chris, my son lives off the square in Marietta. Hell I’m being offered $650k on. 1300’ bungalow in Brookhaven and all they'll do is tear it down and build a McMansion

#7 Average cost of a home in San Diego County is upwards of $500,000 and you'll pay more in property taxes than I ever paid for a mortgage. I don't know who can afford a house like that. If I had to buy it today I couldn't. If I was young I'd leave California.
