The median price to sustain a single family in the state is scratching $900,000, despite sales dropping at 8.5%. <a href=\"https:\/\/calmatters.org\/newsletters\/whatmatters\/2022\/05\/california-gas-prices-inflation\/\">Gas prices take up a big chunk<\/a> of that. <a href=\"https:\/\/gasprices.aaa.com\/?state=CA\">California has the highest gas prices in the nation breaking a new record even for the state as it hit $6.07<\/a>. Gas hikes set to take place July 1st, pushed by Newsom himself, are set to increase that number even further. If economists are to be believed, this looks to put California especially behind in economic growth as its economy becomes stagnant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo Cred: David Crane, Los Angeles Daily News\/SCNG<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by T.
