What’s the average rate of homes in Palo Alto?

No surprise that the people who ask 'why would anyone want to live in Ohio' live in SV or another big, expensive city.

I want to believe that WFH will win but I'm pretty sure that as soon as it is possible, the vast majority of companies will put us back in open floor-plan offices.

For a giant mansion like that, how much is it to maintain it yearly?

What's the appreciation rate for Palo Alto and Columbus?

How's the weather?

How long do you have to commute to work?

Schools?

Medicals?

Diversity?

Weather?

Job prospect?

Economic opportunities?
