[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Virginia was smart they would diversify more out of tech. The tech industry knows it’s over valued and is preparing for a correction.[/quote]

Right!?  Tech will be over and done with when this whole internet fad ends!  Not to mention, the pentagon and fedgov have no need for technology. NOVA should diversify into social justice experiments (like MD) or maybe coal mining.[/quote]

Haha

Look, I am from MD and can acknowledge this is a major loss. Moved to Sunnyvale in 2003 for 10 years and then Seattle for 3 years. The change is going to be pretty dramatic. Most people do not work for companies with trillion dollar market caps and can’t see their transformative power. Arlington is going to get rich, no if’s and buts.

So will DC and MD though just like Fremont did wrt San Fran. It’ll take longer than Arlington but it will happen.[/quote]
I used to live in Sunnyvale and the Bay Area in general for over 10 years.  Even places like Morgan Hill and Gilroy have gotten expensive, and Gilory is over 30 miles from the center of SJ.  In comparison, Rockville to CC is 22 miles.  So yes, outer areas will eventually get more expensive if the tech sector around here gets bigger.

Man, who would've thought Gilroy, the garlic capital of the world would demand almost $700K for a 3 br/2ba 1700sqft house with a lotsize of 2400 sqft. Crazy.

I left the Bay Area in part because of the crazy real estate prices. [/quote]
