you are right, the media narrative is largely completely bunk

however, one thing to keep in mind is there are definitely big figgie facebook touchers that did move to like boise or bozoman or jacksons hole or moab or sedona or whatever dumb poo poo where they could "feel safe, no homeless, "good schools", yadda yadda dog whistles that they all love. if someone starts talking about "good schools", they are probably an extremely rich giant piece of poo poo.

i would also add the big wave of SF/portland/seattle/etc over the past decade are like Wisconsin or Ohio upper-class libertarian/slashdot-tie transplants who moved here for work have spent the past 10 years complaining about it: too much traffic, kill all the homeless, etc. These are the people that are dying for Applebees, big trucks, 3-car garage, etc.

I just checked out bankrate & their "best offers" for credit cards are like 18-30 percent APR.

30 percent used to be the deadbeat rate you got if you missed a payment.

I'm gonna pay this car off two years early and have never missed a payment and this is their offer

I got an Apple Card last weekend b/c I expect to fly home on short notice very soon and that gave me enough additional credit to at least buy the flight home and book someone to check in on my cat daily
