Mostly abstract as per
@Pete21083's reply. Concrete either historically because before the industrial revolution there was not much else but land, or during a complete rebuilt like China after Mao or EU after WWII when you sort of made a country empty. -
1. Land prices. I don't think cheap land is all that important. Plus, it tends to be correlated with lack of economy dynamism. Even after controlling for that, it doesn't matter. Sure SV is more expensive today than 10 years ago, but 10 years ago it was fucking expensive!
