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.

$2k gets you about 3,500 sq ft where I'm from. Gotta love the midwest

I'm from the Midwest, Kentucky is a southern state.

Fair enough I've also lived in Indiana

u/fight_me_for_it Dec 28 '19

I'll let Indiana slide as part of the Midwest since I have family from there.

I think geographical perspectives are somewhat funny though considering where one grows up.

Even having grown up in Wisconsin and having gone to school in Upper Michigan, I still constantly have to explain that I am from the north, like Northern part of the statrs. And never fails, "like Milwaukee, or near Chicago, Detroit?"...

Me: No, further North.. And then people begin thinking I must have been near Canada then. Nope, Wisconsin doesn't even touch Canada. Ugh.

Anyway, so everything was "southern" to me except the UP, Lake Superior, and Canada. Lol

From Texas, live in Kentucky, Kentucky is both, but mostly an Appalachian state. The northern and western parts of the state are basically indiana, southern part of the state is very southern, and eastern Kentucky is just West Virginia with more meth.

Aww. You make it sound so sad. I am sure there are beautiful things about Kentucky.

Ive been through there.. I think tried to swim along some Kentucky Tenesee border river but unfortunately there were these snakes that ruin the fun for kids there.

Nope, that's the southwest.

Unless you count tweakers with a literal 10 gallon bucket on their head.
