Why do not all real estate agents sell houses in expensive areas?

Why do not all real estate agents sell houses in more expensive areas like the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and New York? Why do real estate agents choose to sell houses in lower priced real estate areas when they can be getting huge commissions on million dollar homes that have extremely high demand?

Most agents sell where they live. Being a real estate agent largely requires 2 things.  Local expertise knowledge and a large network of people. So it is a profession that does not lend itself to moving like other professions.
