I don’t think anybody truly realizes how royally fucked the Phoenix housing market and economy in general is. There is absolutely nothing to support the high prices

It’s hard to predict how low home values will go, but I’d suspect the true market values are somewhere around 2017-2019 prices (50%-70% drop in values) An average house here has no business being more than $250k

I’ve never been to this part of the Colorado River before, there could be WATER TICKS anywhere” The 120 degree wind felt good against his bare chest. “I HATE WATER TICKS” he thought. The audiobook version of Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner reverberated the entire car, making it pulsate even as the purified ClearSac urine circulated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of those who didn’t respect the private property rights of the Southern Nevada Water Authority. “With a bright yellow Tesla Roadster, you can go anywhere you want” he said to himself out loud.

This is the core reason why I won't move to CA/AZ

I had a really good job opportunity in AZ that it took everything in me to not take. The pay raise would have put me over 200k. But it just so happened that this was going on when they had to have water control measures and it occurred to me that no matter how "rich" I feel like I am, the hyper wealthy will always have their water while I'm left to figure it out for myself.

Not to mention that when I was still interested in it, I was struggling to find anywhere to live and I wasnt willing to be a high earner living in the ghetto, I felt that was unacceptable for my own sanity. I would have taken a nice townhouse or something just to hold temporarily but I couldn't even find a reasonable townhome. The combination of these events eventually caused me to decline the position, which ended up working out because I did eventually make a somewhat vertical move and in a significantly lower CoL area as well so I actually feel like I accomplished something instead of likely what would have been my move to Phoenix, which would have overall felt like a horizontal or even backwards movement due to my CoL rising significantly and offsetting any gains I made in the promotion.

AZ water situation isn't as bad as the media makes it out to be...at least not for residents. CA is super fucked though. They are trying to supply 3x the population and significantly more farms than we do with a similar share of water. CA also didn't come to an agreement with the other river states this year, so now the Feds will have to step in and they will probably be worse off than if they just conceded a little and got their shit together. AZ also has the option to build reservoirs on the RIM and stop all our monsoons from running off into the GC for califags to slurp later.

Yeah basically any promotion less than a solid doubling of the salary just wouldn't make sense for pretty much anyone, because a move to AZ is doubling your cost of living.

Phoenix seems more overheated than most of SoCal right now honestly, both are incredibly overheated markets but Phoenix is just outrageous, I'd pay 500k to be near beaches and lots of things to do. I'd never in my life pay half a million dollars to be in a boring city in the middle of the desert. The only place that has ever gotten away with this setup is Las Vegas.

Yeah but for the rest of us not from that area, a cooling phoenix is still insanity for most of us even if we are over the 6 figure threshold.

The point was that at least in CA you get beaches and shit. The house me and my wife currently live in would probably cost $5m in Phoenix and $10m in CA. But it wasn't even $1m here in the northeast and without doxxing myself we are currently 25 mins out from the nearest major metropolitan area Pittsburgh. It's not lavish and full of cool shit to do, but it's also not bumfuck nowhere either.

I was open to moving out west and I knew it would take a col hit but after performing the math, if I wanted to have the current lifestyle I have here, out there, our household income would have to double immediately. And after thinking this long and hard about it eventually you are just satisfied with the comforts you have and say fuck it life's too short to upend what you know is working, unless it works for -ME- then I'm just fine where I am.
