[quote=Anonymous]hey DC people.  I used to live.  1325 for 700 Sqft roachy duplex in Huntington (alexandria, route 1),  I left and went to Detroit.  that 1300 gets me 2800 sq ft in a historic neighborhood with an historic building (1890), 2005 upgrades) two balconies, a patio a two car garage.  3 floors (it would cost 2 million in some DC neighborhoods or more).  My commute is short,  my wife walks.  Our salaries are also higher now, as there is less competition in Detroit for professional jobs.

The city right now is at a turning point,  we are about to go through what DC went through in the 90's,  financial restructuring and possibly bankruptcy.  IF you have kids and you are paying 2700 a month in DC you can pay 1000 here and put your kid in Private school (our schools are as bad as DC, maybe worse)

In Detroit you can live like the typical mid to super income DC person.

And did I mention we still save have my wifes income a month on top of 401k and other investments.

It is rough around the edges here but it is real America and cheap as dirt.[/quote]
