As buyers begin to examine Jackass Flat due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Jackass Flat changes the housing and lifestyle preference. It is more a matter of what can be afforded rather than what would we prefer, leading to slower price increases over time. Lower than average population density constrains growth in Jackass Flat to an extent. However, where buyers are willing to compromise on housing and lifestyle choice, there are affordable options.
