[quote=Anonymous]Together we make about $115,000 and we have $16,000 in student loan debt and $8,000 of an auto loan (only one car). Minimum payments are about $450/month but we are paying about $1,100 to get it over with. We would like to have kids soon and both need to keep working (forever). [u]How much would you budget for rent? [/u] We desperately want to stay in DC because my husband has to drive all over metro DC, MD, and VA for his job, which makes for a lot of driving, and adding a morning commute isn't ideal. Also, I don't think we're ready for the suburbs. I work in SW and expect to be there for a while. We want to be walking distance of a few restaurants and a park, and 1/2 a mile to the Metro (preferably anything but red). I would love to live in Capitol Hill, Eastern Market, Shaw, Columbia Heights, or Mt. Pleasant. Thanks for your thoughts! The rent is too damn high![/quote]
