v; you can get a three bedroom house for 600-700 in GA :uhh: :dead:

Yea... That's why I don't know if I'll stay in NYC forever. It's cute for now, but I think I'll eventually move back down south. What I'm paying for rent up here could be a nice mortgage on a 4 bedroom HOUSE down south.

:udontlookok:

when did you move to NYC

:everythingok:

I'm in NYC.
Brooklyn.
1 bedroom a block from the 3/4 train.
$1,500 a month.

Everyone complains about rent prices here, and rightfully so in many cases, but you're paying for access. You're in the epicenter of the fucking world. Any and everything is in NYC. That allows more of a possibility to also make a lot of fucking money. The sky is the limit.

Gentrification is a mess though. Not fucking here for that. They truly are the problem when it comes to rent in NYC. That's another story.

And it also depends on where you want to live in New York. People who aren't from here forget there's more to New York than Manhattan. If you really want to live here, you can. It may be in Staten Island or deep in the Bronx in a two fare zone with a 2 hr commute, but you can live in NYC for under $1k if you are hungry enough.

So I moved from NC to the SF Bay Area at the beginning of this year and my rent for a 2 bedroom 1000 sqft house is 4k per month. It's insane. To put it in context we own a 2000 sqft house in Raleigh NC and our mortgage is only 1400 per month  :dead:

But yeah, this is definitely not worth it. AT ALL. Everything's so gotdamn expensive and the people out here are fake af. Had planned on doing 2 years out here but honestly now am just trying to make it to one. I think I'm just an east coast gorl at heart. NY SHITS on SF any day of the week tbh  :letsmessfag:

Warm weather the whole year, too.  You only need a light jacket during winter. Not no THICK gloves and scarves and mess. No brainer.

Lol well no, now we're poor af b/c of this rent  :dead:

We actually only moved out here because my bf got a career opportunity he couldn't pass up, with the potential for a lucrative stock payout. I got lucky as fuck and found a good-paying job in environmental consulting, otherwise we'd be evicted and homeless.

But I have to write those checks and I almost puke everytime I'm signing.

the south >

!!! Everything is reasonable here.

Tbh, yeah. I grew up in the south and kinda hated it but now that I've moved away I'm realizing how good most things are down there.

Shame all the ignorant rednecks choose to live there though. Progressively we are behind the times.
