    If only housing prices weren’t so bad. People could leave the cities. Having food in suburbs is just going to lead to theft.

      Don’t know if you’re joking.

      Houses near me are 250k+, (a lot of money over 30 yrs) but most cities are nearing 600k+… That’s pretty stupid, and I’ve traveled. Those tent cities with dirty junkies are no joke.

        Suburban houses I looked at start at 350 for fixer upper. That’s still 1.5 hr drive from work.

        The theft part is something I consider a real issue. If you converted your lawn to garden like I see on YouTube. I suspect people will steal food when times are tough. It’s the old stole bread to feed family thing. Even if everyone did it probably still happen I guess.
