As if a single mother of 4 could ever get close to affording a house
Maybe she won the lottery or sold the 5th one she never liked anyway? 🤷
You can afford a house in most states on about $100k. She's just a single mom, don't assume she doesn't have a solid education.
Sexists in here, smh.
$100k is almost double the average income of single mothers (of ANY education level) though, and, again on average, more than a third of their income go towards childcare.
Add the fact that someone with 4 children would pay MORE than average in childcare and other expenses including ridiculously high rent and there REALLY isn't enough left over to ever afford a house anywhere but the least desirable parts of the least desirable states.
I'm not being sexist, you're downplaying the ongoing national emergency of deep systemic poverty.
