Housing prices relative to income have gone up pretty much nationwide:

In many of the areas I am talking about teachers, lawyers, doctors, pharmacists, policemen, other government workers, etc can affordably buy a house in those areas.

Housing prices have historically been highly correlated with income and interest rates. That correlation seems to have broken down.

There are areas where it still is sane but much less of them than historically and concentrated in areas with very little population.
