[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought I was all done flaming FP, but then I saw this. Would have been helpful to mention this a few pages back, FP! Being in the Midwest makes quite a difference for COL, as I know having lived there most of my adult life. Not too many years back I was paying less than $700 to rent a 2 bedroom townhouse in a mid-sized Midwestern city. When I moved to DC, I lost one bedroom and my rent tripled. [quote=Anonymous]Sorry, hit submit too soon. We also lived in NOVA and now we're in the Midwest. [/quote] Flaming me? HA-HA Keep coming... BTW, when we moved here we looked into apartments in Chicago and the prices were exactly the same as in DC metro area. As we expanded our search we found out that the prices in the burbs were exactly the same as DC suburban area. As for groceries and gas the difference is minimum. Midwest doesn't mean country side, you know?[/quote]
