[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd like to see the data the comment was based on. It could be housing prices. However, if you think back to the 2010s when APS was experiencing crazy student population growth you might remember that a large part of the explanation was generational turnover in SFHs. Those kids are now getting older and leaving their parents as empty nesters sitting in houses with low interest rates and no incentive to downsize. [/quote] +1 Our street has a lot of empty nesters (including us). One couple is only in the area for a few months of the year but they prefer to hold on to the house for the season they are here. Houses that are sold (in the low $1M range) are most often bought by developers who put up a $2M+ house. My kids both have said they really liked growing up in Arlington and one is a new grad living in a condo here but I can't imagine them actually being able to buy a house and raise their kids here.[/quote]
