      I’m three hours north of the city, and $500k is still a tight budget unless you want to live ultra-rural.

      Hell that’s most of the houses in my neighborhood and I’m in downtown Little Rock Arkansas. $500k home is not what it once was. If a house should be 3 to 5 times your salary, then a family of two incomes making $50k each are at home there. Not exactly Rothschilds.

      I live in Seattle and you can’t get anything habitable for under 700k, and that’s maaybe.
