Rents in the Bay Area are reaching levels that feel unreal, all thanks to the AI gold rush. Tech workers are cramming into tiny, pricey rooms—some paying over $2,000 a month just for a bed and a shared bathroom with a dozen others. Two-bedroom apartments now average over $4,600, and in neighborhoods like North Beach, rents have soared nearly 80% in a year. Regular folks are being squeezed out, with service workers commuting from far away and more people living in RVs or on the streets. How do you see this AI-driven housing crunch affecting our community long-term? #RealEstate #BayAreaHousing #AIBoom
