[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like these days it's too hard to live in the cities.  The cost of living is just way too high for what you get.  Then everywhere you go there are these lines of people.  Then the food it's all like MREs, no fresh food.  Like most families have left these areas.

I mean wouldn't be easier to pick strawberries than to live in the city.  [/quote]

I live in DC, I go to the grocery store once a week, I buy fresh items there, and cook.  Usually cooking ahead and some meal prep on the weekend and a few additional meals prepared throughout the week.

Unless you don't have a kitchen, don't have a grocery store nearby, don't have a car, don't have a metro line or bus line nearby then it's a lifestyle problem and a you problem.

But that said yes, it's still high cost of living and it would be cheaper to live in a small town or more rural area, but if your situation is that you are so broke that you don't have a kitchen or a car or ability to get to a store by train or bus then you probably can't afford to move either and are somewhat trapped.[/quote]
