It's not just the bay area, I make $35 and live in a small tourist town on the other side of the country and still can barely make rent.
The only people still out here working either own or inherited homes, are homeless, or live with parents.
Minimum wage here is still $7.25/hr and average rent is $2200-$2500/mo for a one bed.
That's about 4x what the average worker out here can afford.
