[quote=Anonymous]The reality is that life in the major job hubs on the coasts is very expensive. You have to be a striver or inherit wealth if you want a good quality of life *supporting a family* in these areas. Yes, you can opt out, but the job base isn’t as strong in more affordable areas. I lived being middle class in the DMV and it’s not pleasant. Rent, can’t afford to own. Only one child because the cost of infant care or going down to one income to have a second wasn’t feasible. Parents are acutely aware that the gap is growing and the middle is shrinking. [/quote]
