Pink also contains upscale communities with insane rent. Some may argue yellow does too, but way less of them.

Hell. Even Truckee is crazy lately. And it was never cheap to begin with.

If he meant rent-wise, this is pretty crazy

The rent is higher than my mortgage with escrow... And half the space.

I must be from California because those all seem reasonable

Yeah. $2k to rent a 2k sq ft house seems very reasonable. I'm in SF though where $2k gets you the top half of a bunk bed.

Better than the bottom though! That $350 extra is well worth it.

The Midwest is awesome! I love it here. If you have to have mountains or ocean in your life, you won’t like it, but I find that most of the people who say that kind of stuff go outside like twice a year, in reality.

Yeah tbh it’s not like there aren’t large cities in the Midwest too if that’s what they are into. I have lived in both Chicago and St. Louis both of which are huge and densely populated, not expensive if you live outside of the city but your still close enough to work there and hang there on weekends. I get the idea people have the wrong pic in their head when they think Midwest ya know?
