Much like communism, this is theoretically possible, but is not practically possible in most US cities, in the year 2019. Certainly not in the ones that are actually undergoing tech booms.
Given the constraints and social norms that our society operates under, a hot job market = misery for a lot of people.
Note that a sufficiently cold job market, and the urban decay associated with a shrinking population also leads to misery for a lot of people.
