East side of PDX  Barton  Right across the street from the Barton store.. you cant miss it 3 brand new very pretty homes.

There also might be more rebates for electric these days as part of the Inflation Reduction Act.https://www.rewiringamerica.org/press-release/doe-proposed-g...That being said, in my area, the gas utility will often run the line from the street to the meter on their dime as they want your business. 

Need to build streets, homes, etc. 

Like you, I'll rather roam the streets of downtown Chicago if given the choice. :)

East Bay  (it can be neighborhood by neighborhood and street by street)Class A: Orinda, Lafayette, Moraga, Walnut Creek, San Ramon, Danville, Dublin, Pleasanton, maybe parts of Pleasant Hill and Concord, parts of Pinole?

If the houses look run down, not kept up, it's most likely not Class A  and look at what's surrounding the neighborhood as far as types of businesses (check cashing, bars on their windows).Bay Area (it can be neighborhood by neighborhood and street by street) I don't know the Peninsula well but expensive Palo Alto would be Class A to me:Class A: Orinda, Lafayette, Moraga, Walnut Creek, San Ramon, Danville, Dublin, Pleasanton, maybe parts of Pleasant Hill and Concord, parts of  Pinole?

How do we house immigrants without putting them on the streets? 

The challenge arises as the city permits only true divided lite windows, leading to a cost of $40k for 4 custom-built wood arch windows to replace rotted ones facing the street.

If you're in the middle between interchanges, your traffic count is the local street count. 

So I took the leap, thinking the software would save me a lot of time.Using the Pin software, I located and visited a couple of homes in Marco Island, FL.There were two homes on the same street, both listed as “bank owned” and “vacant”.As I’m standing at the front door of property #1, the door opens & I am greeted by a very forgiving woman.
