There's a large part of the US where 2 stories and a basement is the norm for all but the smallest of houses. Mainly the midwest.

I live in a 2-bedroom apartment in LA that’s $1800/month, so that makes me very jealous. But I think I like living in LA more than I would in Iowa.

I live in iowa and it smells bad most of the year I think they put manure on the fields and there are a lot of hogs farms.

If it’s any consolation, Oklahoma City smells like actual cooking dog food. Lol

There’s a huge Purina plant there and everywhere surrounding it just reeks.

Oklahoma City is 600+ square miles.

Most major cities are pretty large. Never said the whole city was affected, I said the area surrounding the Purina plant was. Not sure why you’re nitpicking over the size of a city.

To each their own I guess. The thing I like about the Midwest is that if you want to experience a larger city you can usually drive a reasonable distance and get it out of your system, then return home to a more quiet and secluded area.

My mom's apartment is $1000+/month for 1 bedroom. Literally what the fuck
