我看天下大小事

美國居民正在向郊區移動

美國居民自二O二一年以來不斷从城中區移居到郊區，大約有三分之二的城中區人口正在下降之中，在一項調查報告中，平均有二十五萬居民向遷入效區。

主要原因是在疫情期間，許多人都是居家辦公，大家希望在郊區找到更大空間和較便宜的住房，遠距離辦公似乎己成常態，尤其是在東部首都華府及紐約，許多人都在往郊區搬遷，由于此種趨勢使得郊區房價不斷上升，新屋也已供不應求。

自從俄烏戰爭之後，全球経濟面對巨大挑戰，歐洲各國遭遇能源短缺，世界各地資金繼續往美國集中，美國聯邦儲備銀行不斷升息，大量資金湧入，投資人對於投資地產仍是首選，但是由于原材料價格不斷上漲，就以大休斯敦地區而言，平均房價己上漲百分之三十以上，這是從未發生過的現象。

美國期中選舉之號角已響起，前總統川普正在蠢蠢欲動，其支持之共和黨人已頻傳捷報，拜登政府之民主黨正面臨嚴峻挑戰，倘若在國會參眾議院失守，成為跛腳總統無異。

當城中市民不斷移出，也是民主黨票之流失，在郊區及郷鎮地區共和黨較有優勢。

我們非常悲痛的得知，全美已経有一百萬人因新冠病毒失去生命，同時也改變了全人類生活方式，這一百萬人代表了一百萬個以上的家庭，她們的悲傷又能向何人诉說呢？

Americans Are Moving To The Suburbs

Since February 2021, the American people have been migrating to the suburbs. About two-thirds of the population in the urban areas of many cities are declining. Surveys show that an average of 250,000 people move to nearby suburbs annually.

The main reason is that many people have worked from home during the pandemic. Everyone hopes to find more and larger space and cheaper rent in the suburbs. It seems normal to work remotely, especially in the Washington, D.C. and New York City areas. Due to this trend, housing prices in the suburbs have been rising. There is also a shortage of new houses.

Since the Russia-Ukraine war, global economics is facing a big challenge. European countries have encountered energy shortages while the money continues to stay in the U.S. where the inflation is high and the Federal Reserve Bank continues to increase the interest rates. The investors’ first choice is still in real estate due to the rising price of building materials. Just in the Houston area alone, the price of houses rose close to least 30 % which has never happened before.

We are saddened to learn that one million people in our nation have lost their lives due to Covid-19. That represents more than one million families, but who can they blame?

The mid-term election is coming up. Unless President Biden can change the current situation in the economy, democrats might be on the losing end of the vote. In the Congress that means that Biden will become a lame-duck president. He definitely has harmed our country in many ways.
