An AI boom is sending San Francisco rents through the roof: ‘nowhere left for people to go’
📍 The outcome
{ "epilogue": "An AI boom flooded San Francisco with workers, causing rents to explode and creating one of the tightest housing markets in the United States. The resulting surge in rent prices caused the monthly median for a two-bedroom to surpass New York City by nearly $1,000.
This trend left many residents with nowhere left to go as the multifamily market experienced an AI-led recovery." }
