The city of Austin raises minimum wage for city employees to $22

Good luck in Tampa.
Bloom where you are planted.
I hope there’s an opportunity to put in a few delicious fruit trees there. You get the rains for them!

Runaway real estate prices, this round, are a worldwide problem in part due to hedge funds buying properties and whole subdivisions at a single stroke.

It’s happening in a lot of popular cities. Berlin (the people are fighting back). Dublin. London. Austin. Etc.

The ordinary people who work in Austin, who want to live in Austin, have been doubling and tripling up. Among my friends who do live inside the city limits, some have 6 people under one roof, renting a house. The laws about this sort of arrangement are all over the place vis-a-vis limits to how many unrelated persons sharing a domicile are allowed.
