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.
