I'm not sure it's so rosy in Oakland. For commercial real-estate in oakland, we were hit with the reverse -- rent kept going up as folks like Uber were eyeing it. Community housing groups were rightfully concerned for the relatively poor community as well. It reached the point that we moved to a spot in SF (union square) because prices reached a similar level. We went fully-remote right before covid as we had a remote culture, so not sure how it is now.

If true, good to hear Oakland is fixing the path it was on..
