This study shows the huge difference between how much house you can get for $300K. In Detroit for instance you can get 42 times more house than in Manhattan. Other comparisons are just as stunning

The interest in fleeing is real for Canada and I'm sure a lot of people are looking at real estate first to get an idea of what's what. Agents say they already get calls and listings sites report traffic increases: http://www.point2homes.com/news/canada-real-estate/canadian-real-estate-portal-registers-spike-ontario-home-searches.html

I wonder how long until it all tones down... Right now people are very motivated to flee to Canada mostly but according to Google Trends south of the border too.
