[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you go to Raleigh? The other locations are not great. [/quote]

Probably, this is only "acceptable" location. I may go there temporarily, till finding a new fed job within 50 miles.

If Raleigh, I may just sleep in my SUV and go home very weekend.[/quote]

In that case, they will still pay me DC locality. But my life will be miserable, sleep in my car and drive back and forth every weekend.[/quote]

That's not accurate, OP would be assigned to Raleigh and receive Raleigh locality pay.  It is based upon your duty station, not where you live.[/quote]

You are correct, but I may still sleep in my car, to save money on rental apartment (or a room). I hope it will be temporary. But who know if I am able to choose a location.[/quote]

If I were you I would rent a room like this one for $500 per month:  https://raleigh.craigslist.org/roo/d/raleigh-cozy-private-furnished-1br-500/7873626714.html

Honestly you want to be able to prepare your meals and not have to eat out constantly, that alone will probably make up for the cost.  Plus you want to sleep comfortably and safely.[/quote]

That is an option too. If living in my car, I consider cooking on my own.
