Housing boom in SJCampos

Guess how many new housing units — houses and apartments — became available in the second trimester of 2008.

“Somente entre abril e junho deste ano, foram lançadas em São José dos Campos cerca de 9 mil unidades de casas e apartamentos”, informa Ronaldo Queiroga, diretor-regional do Secovi para a região do Vale do Paraíba, destacando o grande volume de empreendimentos habitacionais novos na cidade de vocação industrial e que agora passa por forte processo de verticalização.

Nine thousand, in São José dos Campos. People are moving out of the capital and into the interior cities close enough to commute.

Many of those units were in apartment buildings. The city grows upward. We’ve witnessed it personally.

Off-topic: how did I go so long without posting? My plate runneth over.
