My wife and I are interested in expanding to help bump up our cash flow to help at least one of us exit our current W2 jobs but are hesitant to do so given the current market climate. 

As the impacts of climate change become increasingly evident, more individuals are likely to incorporate considerations of air quality and other disaster risks into their choices when selecting a place to live.
