The point is that the problem of housing availability exists everywhere in the country where there are places to work.
If the choice of housing were independent of job availability, your point about housing being cheaper inland would make sense, but the cheaper housing inland only has the exact same income to home cost ratio. So its the same problem of affordability regardless of the actual price.
Income to housing price ratio varies by city and region
It is not 'exact same ratio'
edit: you also ignore the deleterious effects of illegal immigration which increases demand but not supply (not every illegal alien works in construction)
