Of course that's the case here. Is this supposed to be surprising or new info? - Krusty Jun 25, 19:16 4
- Certainly not surprising, but I found the numbers interesting -- nm - ty97 Jun 25, 19:19 3
  - Do people own houses out of the city and rent during the week? Or do they own condos in the city? -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 19:36 2
    - The ownership percentages here refer to all homes (house, condo, apartment, studio). Most people here rent. -- nm - ty97 Jun 25, 19:54 1
      - Understood. I was just wondering if some of the renters owned homes elsewhere. -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 19:58
How does that compare to other cities like San Francisco. -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 19:14
Obviously for the Sbarros -- nm - Strongbad Jun 25, 19:05
freaking renters -- nm - prayformojo Jun 25, 18:59
