They sky is freakin grey with pollution pretty much always, there is people just freaking everywhere, Mumbai levels of crowded, the homes are tiny and cost a bazillion, and the beaches are "meah" at best especially factoring in bum-dodging your way around them.

Dewey and Mayer - property values there are a low for a reason - pollution from mining - EPA has investigated (https://response.epa.gov/site/...) and I have spoken with several residents who were told by the EPA to not allow their dog or children to play outside in the dirt due to high levels of arsenic. 

But here is too cold and polluted. 

There's no noise or light pollution. 

:Lots of comments on this thread on the death rate.If you have damaged lungs, such as due to pollution (Wuhan) and smoking (60% of Chinese Males smoke), CoronaVirus is much more deadly. 

I'm sure my lungs will also appreciate me being out of this horribly polluted air.2.

It’s very sad to see the death toll climbing, people losing their jobs and suffering, but I must say I’m enjoying the peace and quiet, lack of noise and air pollution, no traffic and a quietude that I haven’t experienced in Boulder since the 90’s (minus the trails, the trails are busier than ever).

There was one reason - I wanted lake front property and needed someone that specialized in understanding lake front property specific issues (EPA - building - pollution - water sports - lake level fluctuations)She came right out and asked me why and I told her.

Satellite images have shown a dramatic decline in pollution levels over China, which is "at least partly" due to an economic slowdown prompted by the coronavirus. 

If the water pollution issue can get resolved, and it has never been closer to being resolved, that would go a long way in helping IB’s RE prices.
