When the average home price is $2m in the county, you can forget about in home daycares. It doesn't make financial sense. They are slowly going to go away. We need to try to keep the ones we have and then build new facilities ASAP. Right now I bet the number of available spots is going do…

Really great piece. 2 quotes that resonated with me:

"Too many people I know do not understand how much luck of the draw had to do with where they live and the “character” of the neighborhood they prize so highly — and at a price others cannot afford."

This is very true. Philo…

On one hand I agree with you on the other hand bay area politics have been a disaster for so long that it's hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel. And there's a lot of anti tech sentiment so I think tech companies generally try to stay out of politics. But I wish they wouldn't. We …

Agree with the above comments. What percentage of the readers of the Daily Journal are renters vs landlords? Because there are 2 very different ways to look at this news. At least we have the rent gouging laws in place. But I'm sure landlords will be maxing out their rent increases ASAP. …

Hear hear! I live in a mixed density neighborhood in redwood city and I think it's great. Would love to see more neighborhoods like that on the Peninsula.

This letter wasn't about which candidate is better. It's about misleading political ads. I realize Donald Trump has moved the goalpost on lying and deceit, but many of us would like to move it back. Lying about a newspaper endorsement should not be acceptable.

The numbers are too low. The bay area is way behind on housing in general and we need to build more, quickly. Local cities need to stop complaining and dragging their feet. Instead it's time to get ahead of this and plan how to densify in a way that everyone is comfortable with rather tha…

Seems like you are using extremely anecdotal information to decide what people do or don't want. There are a lot of duplexes on the peninsula - they are bought and sold just like all other property, and there's not a glut of them on sitting for sale on the market right now. So seems like …

We live in one of the most unaffordable areas in the country. Using a pandemic as an excuse to stall on housing production, while homelessness continues to increase and real estate prices continue to inch up, is not a good look for our region. These housing goals don't even kick in until …
