[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So a person making over 150k can't even afford an old house in the dmv with good schools? What about the singles making 50 to 80k? What can they afford? A shack or tent in the woods here? [/quote] They have roommates or live in affordable housing. https://housing.arlingtonva.us/income-rent-limits/ [/quote] This is not true. The singles making 50-80k can afford a condo, and a person making 150k can afford a house with good schools. You just might not like the commute to DC - like it might be out in Fairfax where I live and not a super updated gorgeous magazine-worthy house. But you can do it. I find people on here are often a little dramatic about their prospects. [/quote]
