As someone who just moved from Vancouver to the Bay Area, it&#x27;s obvious the issue isn&#x27;t housing. It&#x27;s income.  My apartment in trendy yaletown was $2350&#x2F;month for a very nice 2 bed, 2 bath place within 10 mins of anything in downtown.  Try finding something even remotely as nice around Silicon Valley.<p>The issue we should be tackling is the low wages seen in the area.  The same developer who could make $100k USD in the valley makes $60k CAD in Vancouver.
