Ripple Effect: Prime suburbs are the epicentres of Boom as these prime suburbs become very expensive and people find it difficult to afford it. Un-affordability pushes them to go to neighbouring areas that are affordable and they pick up a bargain. And when these areas get expensive too, people move into next neighbouring suburb and this goes on endlessly. This is what is called as the Ripple Effect.
