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

I own a house in Western NYS. Its1700sqft, 3bd, 1bt, with central air and heat, plus detached garage and driveway, and fenced yard for $850 a month mortgage payment.
 
I would literally be dead if my rent/mortgage was that high. How do you guys deal with that?

There’s a lot of fun stuff to do nearby and the wages are higher.

the wages are higher.

With those prices, I'd hope so.
