[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When a double income household with each partner making in the low to mid $100ks (3 x the national median income and more than 2x the DC median) are locked out of most desirable areas- you have a market that's not sustainable.  [/quote]

But while that income is high for the reat of the country, it is not high here. You are competing against the lawyers, lobbyists, tech guys, defense firm owners...whether you like it or not. Good luck. [/quote]

LOL there are not enough "defense firm owners" to buy your overpriced shitbox in East Falls Church. Something will give.[/quote]

Well, there are more than enough lawyers and lobbysists to make up the difference!

You sure do sound jealous.[/quote]

Not to mention many dual income people working in tech like DH and myself. A 200k-250k job is quite easy to come by in tech (im not even mentioning our RSUs either). When you have not one one, but 2 highly compensated people, it really is cheap as peanuts living here vs if we lived where our companies are based in CA. [/quote]
