Liberals drive the middle class out of their cities

The Atlantic:

Why Middle-Class Americans Can't Afford to Live in Liberal Cities

Blue America has a problem: Even after adjusting for income, left-leaning metros tend to have worse income inequality and less affordable housing.

Maybe that is the reason liberals talk about income inequality so much.  A home in suburban San Francisco can cost 10 times as much as a similar home in a suburb of Houston.  It is another reason why those cities were hardest hit in the financial crisis as home prices dropped to much less than was owed.
