Total BS. 30 miles puts you into the east bay valleys with plenty decent housing under 1 mil. Of course, if you are talking 5bd 4 bath 5k sq-ft ....

Tesla has different campuses . Maybe these guys need to be on the peninsula. The old NUMI plant they are in, is in Fremont. It has a ton of good homes under 1 mil, especially if you add a 45 min commute.

It will be interesting to see if this company goes anywhere. Often these are "me too" projects, trying to pull off another IPO or a buyout. It makes sense to go after something that already worked once. The capital likes this too.
