When I was visiting 5 years ago, an Uber driver told me that the marijuana industry bought up houses since they didnt want to put money in banks. Made sense to me when I heard it. 🤷♂️
Many of them actually were not allowed to put money in banks, actually. They had to accept cash. It was wild.
I don't think that caused this, though. For a while it was people moving here. But prices have stayed high even as people have moved away.
