[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the good inputs. Admin should really do something about un useful comments[/quote] We aren't trying to be mean. We are being realistic. You will be living on a very tight budget with that income. It's very, very low for this area. [/quote] I'm so glad I didn't know about DCUM when we moved here. We made $120k a year and rented a townhouse in Alexandria. 30 minute commute to DC by metro. I never once felt like money was tight. It took us one year to save for a home, and we bought in the same neighborhood. My husband is a Fed, and his salary went from $80k to $155k in the 5 years we've been here, so now we're living even more comfortably than before. Our daycare, which I love, is $1000 a month. It's funny, whenever people say they want to move to someplace like Orlando, people say that they shouldn't, because the job opportunities, job stability, and ops for advancement are so high here. They would (of course) also make fun of Orlando. But when people want to move here, people tell them to stay away. Get off the message boards OP, and conduct your own research.[/quote]
