Where would you want to live and rent for $400 bucks a month?

This:

Or this box for $400 bucks a month in someone's 1 bedroom apartment?

Why it's not completely ridiculous to live in a $400 box in San Francisco



We started the search for a cat-friendly, one-bedroom apartment with the max price set to $2,500. It would be more than we spent in Washington, D.C., but split between the two of us, my boyfriend Brent and I could make that work. Zero results came up. We paid for an AirBnB for one full month to help us get settled and, ideally, not be forced into the first available apartment we found, so we took the next week to search online for apartments.

I could pay $1,400 for a private bedroom in a house with other roommates — but I’d have to leave Brent behind. I could live in the “PENTHOUSE DELUXX FULLY FURNISHED” scam that had a price tag of $99 a month. Or we could commute from San Jose. We gulped and bumped our search window up to $3,300. Finally, there were a number of options. I emailed all of them. Every single one. Photos or no photos. Regardless of neighborhood, distance from work or square footage, I emailed with my friendliest compliments about their “absolutely beautiful” properties...

For a dude who lives in a dingy trailer, you sure do come off as an arrogant prick.

Someone who earns $15 per hour in SF can have a little dignity and maybe not need any public assistance. Douche.

Hey, if you want to live in the middle of Nowheresville have at it.

For me, I'll take living in a place where there's actually things to do other than Friday night High School football.

You raise a valid point. Why should it be assumed that a person working is doing it to survive financially? For example, it could be a teenager trying to earn enough money to fly to Europe for the summer as they live with Mom and Dad in a 3600 sq ft house. And for those that do work to survive, who is to say that the same salary will qualify for the same standard of living?

Dims can't handle treating people as individuals. Instead, they must treat us like cattle because to them, human beings are just glorified dumb animals anyway

I married into a Deep South family. Where I live now, real estate is much higher than in Alabama. I have frequently pointed out to my friends and neighbors, "For the price you pay for a house here, you can get a much bigger one on a lot more property in Alabama. But then...you have to live in Alabama."

Hilton Head is quite nice. But then again, it's coastal. Anywhere coastal is nice.

Young people are shafted by too much immigration.

SC. They are my kind of folks. They do not even compare to the leftists, fags, and freaks in San Fran.
