[quote=Anonymous]In most major cities, it seems that people sacrifice time (commute) or space (living in a condo, <1500 square foot house, or townhouse, possibly having kids share bedrooms) if they want to live somewhere with low crime and good schools and have a limited budget. At least this is the case in DC, the bay area, New York, and Boston. You can adjust your expectations, or continue to rent. I think there are a lot of advantages to renting that are not "throwing money out," like greater flexibility to move, spending less money on home maintenance, and having your landlord deal with hassles like the plumbing being broken.[/quote]
