Grant’s direct answer

Yes, when that clustering happens naturally and the neighborhood still fits the individual renter. Coworkers can provide an immediate social bridge into a new city, so HomeBase considers it useful information when several recent graduates are choosing the same neighborhood or community. But Grant does not want someone pushed into a building solely because coworkers are there. Training classes change and jobs change. The stronger long-term choice is usually an apartment that also places the renter inside a broader young-professional environment where friendships can extend beyond one employer.
