Scary Charts (West Coast edition) – 08.01.26

In addition to the $3,250-a-month rent which included a gardener, internet and utilities, remote workers were on the hook for an additional $200 monthly work-from-home fee. The rent was already high. Then came the $200 work-from-home feehttps://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2026/07/30/remote-work-rental-fee-sparks-outrage/91101669007/

Yikes.

  1. The daughter of a friend of mine moved to Charleston from California to escape the high costs and the homeless camp across the street from her high-end condo. I’m not sure how the prices compare there, but she is much happier and she’s in a neighborhood. That’s very walkable a park for her dog nearby and she can get to nice restaurants and stores walking and she can get to the hospital which is a university hospital or at least associated with one. She and her husband are very happy there.
