Maybe it's time for some soft vigilante action. Start mailing people brochures about how Denver, Seattle, Portland and Austin are really really nice places. And enclose a bullet.

Denverite here. It's not Silicon Valley, but rents and housing are pretty out of control here too. Additionally it's still very car-centric. Lots of opportunity though.

I really have no idea what the "enclose a bullet" part means.

He means put a bullet in the envelope as some vague threat.

All those places are sick to death of Californians moving in and fucking things up.

Oregon has been putting commercials on SFBA airwaves saying "move here."

And housing is getting expensive here too.
