The golden hues of California are losing their luster, it seems. With a reported loss of over 800,000 residents, one electoral vote, and a congressional seat, the "Golden State" is now facing an alarming reality: only 16% of its residents can afford a median-priced home. While metropolitan areas like Seattle witness the same housing affordability challenges, California's issues are deep-seated. As per a Bloomberg report, the dream of homeownership and starting a family in the state seems distant. A study by the California Association of Realtors found that a mere 16% of households could qualify to buy a median-priced home in Q2 2023. Moreover, counties like Mono, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo have become even less accessible. In an age where the American Dream is closely associated with homeownership, the challenges faced by Californians are unparalleled. Gas prices, a spiraling cost of living, credit card debts, and inflation only add to the state's woes. As the state grapples with its affordability issues, many question the decisions emerging from its legislature and wonder if the promise of "going green" will bring forth a brighter, more affordable future.
