You can afford a 2 bedroom apartment now though. You just need to sleep in your car because you live 300 miles from work.

Don't give them ideas. Speculators will sell you apartments that don't exist betting most people can't visit it anyway.

That is one good thing that WFH did. I know several people who moved from LA to our middle of nowhere town where a nice 3br house is under $150k.

3 bed room houses were $86k in my town 5 years ago. No influx of people have come here, in fact less are moving here because the colleges are struggling, but housing proces have doubled.

Damn bro, that's actually pretty inexpensive. Do you have fiber out there, or heck cable? Because that's... That's some pretty cheap housing.

Yup, they're actually installing FTTC in my neighborhood now.

The only drawback is that it's rural Texas.

But, if enough liberals move here for affordable housing...
