Meanwhile the entire west and southwest is in an epic drought. Experts no longer consider it an anomaly and are woke that this is the new reality. The hoover dam water level is at 1070' is losing 6ft of depth every month and is 110' (950ft) from where it will no longer produce electricity.
The western drought is of biblical proportions and residents, businesses, farmers, governments will be forced into draconian water reduction mandates and rationing.

Meanwhile Phoenix, Tempe and Vegas are the poster childs for single family home sprawl.

When and how will this end? And why would any sane, intelligent company locate there?
Great points, some of which I was thinking the other day......

If I was a big real estate investor playing a long game, I would be taking a hard look at Chicago. Shit, there's this growing thought in my brain to sweep up a cheap condo here so I have a place to crash when I want, before prices go up.

Chicago is very well positioned to ride out climate change.....
