Does anybody see rents increasing due to minimum wage increases?

California is seeing a 25% increase to minimum wage rates over a 2-year period. I am wondering if folks on the forum have considered what this may do to rents in the state. Service costs generally increase when such wages increase and I wonder if we can say the same with rents and thus rental incomes for investors. 

Any thoughts?
