Fucked over by cost of living

Wisconsin here.

900sq. ft. 2 bed 1 bath, 1 car garage, $350/mo for the mortgage.
34x20 2-car shop, $200/mo rent.

Newport drives things up. Plus RI is home to to a lot of expensive vacation homes. My gf's parents have one close to Taylor Swift's.

You gotta remember this is probably averages, and ritzy cities drive that shit up.

>Americans complaining about cost of living

Ugly license plates though ;(

And I thought Atlanta Metro had one of the lowest cost of living...

I mean, all you need to make is $30k and you can afford an apartment with cash to spare.

Hawaii is probably odd statistically because so many people that own homes aren't full time residents. There's lots of poor people on the big island and a lot of the full time residents of every island work in the service/tourism industry.

>virginia
They should include a circle around the DMV

lol you think we get paid significantly more in CA?

>I make 72k/yr salary (No OT), I have never had a week under 55 hours, most are 60-65
>1/3rd-ish of that goes to tax
>I take home 42k/yr
>- Rent (26400/yr)
>- Food (4200/yr)
>- Utilities (3600/yr)
>- Transit/Fuel (1440/yr)
>$6360/yr left over for me to spend on things

Damn you Californians for making so much more than us!!!

Cure heartbreaker to come in and tell you all about how great this shithole is.

Northern Virginia needs to be fucking kicked out of Virginia. PWC, Fairfax, and East Loudoun need to GET OUT.

Prices are similar across NOVA, But my question is how do all these ghetto niggers afford housing when a run-down 1000sqft apartment in a bad neighborhood costs upwards of $2000 a month.
Do these left-wing wackos give them reparations to enrich their communities?

Hell fucking yeah.
