Is there anything YC could do to help YC companies with housing?  It&#x27;s not trivial for teams during YC to get housing in SFBA, but they have enough upside to put up with a lot, and usually figure out something.<p>It&#x27;s <i>really</i> hard for employees 1-N, especially at sub-market salaries, but without 10% equity stakes, to move to SFBA.  It pretty much restricts you to people already-here, people who will live college dorm style, or people who are already well off.  Too much of the money raised goes out the door in salary (taxed) to pay for housing.
