Today we're talking about being priced out. My panel of guests discussed the high cost of housing in San Diego and the impact that's having on Tijuana. I'm Jade Hindman with conversations that keep you informed , inspired , and make you think. We'll talk about locals in Tijuana who are being priced out of a home market.
S1: Well , I mean , lay it out for me. Um , tell me about what an average studio or two bedroom rental would cost in San Diego compared to Tijuana. S1: Wow. Lots to get into there. Um , but , De Nora , I want to bring you into this to your hypothesis is that those investing in Tijuana's housing market are driving up the prices.
S1: Still ahead , while rents may be cheaper in Tijuana , there's still a hefty tax on your time if you cross the border. S1: Yeah. So policy just isn't keeping up here. Um , you know , I want to move along to an issue facing those that commute across the border every day , and that's the cost of transportation.
S1: Dinner. Are there any proposed solutions to address the long border wait times and the issues that that brings. S1: Well , and , Gustavo , one of the things both donor and Teddy emphasized is the need for collaboration.
