Blue collar. Warehouse work. Forklift that kind of shyt.
i don't think you realize how extraordinarily high the COL is in the bay area even for white-collar households. you'd struggle to find reasonable rent in a decent location even deep in east bay, unless you had roommates. the, factoring in $$$ for amenities, it begs the question of if the move is worth it just to be financially strapped.
plus, a lot of the elements of the bay area which made it distinct have changed vastly. a lot of chill people, but there's also an strong undercurrent of pretentiousness/classism in parts the yay that people pretend doesn't exist.
may be better just to visit on the reg.
