Thanks, lots of good stuff indeed.
I'm still finding it difficult to find much demographic+employment data specifically on recent home buyers in the bay. There's lots of demographic data (likely due to us census reports), but it usually refers to the residents of a city/county, not the home buyers.
Strategist, I saw that RealtorĀ® report you linked to.
Thank you for sharing.
Very Hip and Cool, all the data at her fingertips for all the Smarty Pants.
Saw lots like that in 2007.
So you want to know who the recent buyers are, their occupation and incomes. Basically, who are the ones that can still afford to buy a home in the BA. Is that right?

Yup.
I was hoping to find this info already crunched and made into pretty charts with commentary and insights...but the data appears elusive.
Both of them immigrated to here from other parts of the US
Anecdotal evidence from my own life, looking at my own neighborhood, and that of some of my friends, indicates a surge in homes being bought by tech workers, and soo many of them appear to be Asian or Indian. It's not surprising, but I'd love to see some data on it. Especially if it allowed comparison to recent history, like 10-20 years ago.
