The 10,000-apartment tech campus: what if companies provided on-site housing?

There are problems with having &quot;tied&quot; housing what happens when you leave or have a disagreement with your boss oops you are now homeless.<p>Also a lot of these model villages like cadburys etc where very small c conservative and had rule about behavior out side of work that might not go down well.<p>One real world example in my village in the UK even today both of the village pubs are not in the actual Parrish as the landowners didn&#x27;t like the &quot;workers&quot; drinking - of course the landowners had wine with dinner but thats different<p>sorry Mr Smith you haven&#x27;t been mowing your lawn regularly enough so you are fired.

Employers building housing for their employees isn&#x27;t really a new idea: at some point in history, 3% of the U.S. population lived in &quot;company towns&quot;.[1]<p>But would you really want to live in a place where the only people you could socialize with are your co-workers, and where you&#x27;d be exiled from your entire community if you changed jobs or were fired?<p>[1] <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Company_town" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Company_town</a>
