Poor Harry Potter.

I paid 260 a month for a 1200sq ft house with a detached garage.
esquimal
The total price doesn't really say much without the average income. Expensive rents with high salaries are alright.
Wingsofachicken
Also Vancouver

... plus utilities
TacticalOtter
Still better than some UK military accommodation!

Toronto Housing?

Are you talking about San Francisco

College be like "super cozy dorm room enough to share with two roommates!"

I live in the Midwest in a 2 bedroom apartment with laundry for 450. But...you know. It's the Midwest.
IMainReinhardt
I had a three bedroom trailer in florida for less than 400 and now own a 4 bedroom 2 bathroon house with 2 car garage for 825.
biglongandgirthyusername
In brazil the same is about 2k per month
SamArt53
I'd take that over a free 'rack' on a 1957 aircraft carrier. No room to put knees up, having to roll all the way over to open your lockers.
SamArt53
Air conditioning opening which only blew cold air in SF in the winter - didn't work in the South China Seas where the air was shot and muggy
MsRainbowFancy
I used to live in a 4bedroom 3 level house downtown suburbs in wisconsin for around $400 a month and that's including utilities
thevortexmaster
A house as big as that stair closet in Vancouver BC is a million to own
iupvotebadcomments
This is almost everywhere now imo.
turtleturner
Im in Aus, and my bargain basement apartment with no services but water and electricity was $1040 a month
LetumComplexo
About what it is in Washington DC and Fairfax County, VA too. Im going to have to move south if I want to move out.
LongJohnSilverfish
I live right on the ocean in a decent house. $3,900/month
IAmNotACatISwear
Jesus christ. O.o I guess you pay for what you get? I live 10 mins from the Pacific and pay 1700 in mortgage. Note: it's a condo.
LongJohnSilverfish
Damn, I live in a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house with a finished basement
complimentpin
and london
Gold666Skull
My first room in Portland was literally a closet under the stairs. $150/mo + $50 for bills.
kittenpanda33
Mmmm, more like $2k.
xTRIFORCEx3
Lol 1000$ in key west, fl...terrible place to rent when you're a broke ass like me
catnipnap
Me and my husband pay 540 € per month for 56 2m appartment in Finnish Lapland. Stay out of here.
iboopedyournose
Apartments in Seattle for a one bedroom is $1400 a month.
megathug
More like a studio...
coffeeandconversations
I thought that was s good deal
JarJarDrinks
In San Francisco that would be $800 per week.
IAmNotACatISwear
Never attempting to move to SF then, thanks for the heads-up and good luck.
Teddythewonderllama
Ha. Try Vancouver. Most expensive city in North America to live in.
NowYouAreBreathingManually
In London that would be £800 per day.

ComeJoinTheMurder
And here i am in kansas paying $715/mo for a three bedroom house in a nice neighborhood.
ElectronicArtsOfficial
The only problem with that is, you're in Kansas. Sincerely, another Kansan.
ComeJoinTheMurder
Not so bad when i just mever go outside

Until your realize Brownback is still suppressing everyone's ability to get good internet :c

I was about to mention Silicon Valley. It's impossible out here.
caribbeanz
That's why a lot of us born and raised in the valley have left ????

I may be moving to the bay area... and i'm terrified of rent prices
ilovefurbabies
I'm fortunate enough to have flexible hours where I avoid traffic. Rent in the city is stupid and it smells like urine.
Kassien
How far out are you living? Because even Modesto is getting expensive from what I hear.
Kassien
You know your from the bay, when you refer SF as 'the city' and not as San Francisco or San Fran.
JarJarDrinks
The great secret with SF residents (at least when I lived there) was no one had a hobby or traveled. Rent consumes every dime you make.
Kassien
Don't. I used to love Cali, but it has become overpopulated and way to expensive. Unless you're making six figures at a job.
actualseal
Six figures is just enough to live forget saving
Kassien
I've got family in Cali, and we make the same amount. I can afford a 1600sqft home and two decent cars. He lives in a trailer...
randomsonglyric
Did you move? If so where to? Asking as a fed up bay area-an trying to escape
Kassien
Got out to Utah. School is cheaper and the economy tends to be stable.
NoOne156
I was looking at the dublin/Pleasanton area for housing since in the city wouldn't be feasible... but I would be making good money
Kassien
Dublin is one of the most expensive areas, with Blackhawk the prices are easily in the multimillion dollar homes. Hopefully it's a 6 figure
NoOne156
Company told me that's where they want me to move. And I have to be close to freeway since I will travel 90% of the time
401klurker
Honestly if you don't mind commuting, go out about an hour ways, learn the traffic and with 6 figures and a cheap home you can retire early.
Kassien
An hour with or without traffic?
401klurker
Without. Depending on when you start coming from north at 6 it isn't that bad.i also tend to leave early from my old job.
NoOne156
Yeah I would be traveling a lot... my company said if I take it I would probably want Pleasanton or hayward... but I was even thinking tracy
skinsock
Sydney is the most expensive city to live in last I checked. $800/m is really cheap.
13Alpha
I live in a city of 100k, and my mortgage is less than $800/mo for a 3bdrm/2bath w/ attached 2-car garage.
MasonDixie
I have a 2 bed, 2-1/2 bath town home with a two car garage and large backyard and i pay $900! I would never pay as much as OP!
AngryVe
Yuong don't live in new York.
Vanbytheriver
Pay that shit off! 3 year plan!
NothingForNobody
Rent for a 2 bdrm/1 bath in PCB 1300$. However, that is BAH for the old military housing.
SkepticalFriend
2-2 apartment in Bryan Texas and my rent is $1050
LaBarbaDeFuego
Gig em!
Cenasaur

built4speed
Yeah, my apt is 975 sq ft, 2 bed, 2 bath, $675/month. I'm in a really good part of Little Rock.

I live in a city of a million in Canada and my mortgage is $2500. 2 bedroom 1.5 bath
CylonCrusader
I feel your pain
TeardropIvy25
Yeah that's a condo...
IMainReinhardt
4 bed/2 bath 2 car garage and pool. 825 mortgage. And i get all the benefits of Florida without all the meth.
theyreshellfishcoral
Where the fuck do you live? Fort Myers 1 bedroom and I pay $1100 a month
jeandolly
Do you have to pay extra for meth ?
IMainReinhardt
Usually its the other way around
thestainlesssteelratsavestheworld
$800 a month? I would kick a nun to death for a flat that cheap in London.
playgroundpushover
I'm paying £740 a month no bills for my room in Kensal Green. In Leeds I was paying £350. I don't like the capital.
digitalutopia
$650/mo for a 2br 1bath house
ineedtousethesleep
how much is it for a single room in London?
Zoltar666
That depends. From £400 to £4000 per month. :)
IMainReinhardt
About how much i pay for a 4 bed 2 bath home in florida
WolfgangMcTaco
You could rent a huge apartment in a nice area in mexico city with that.
DaShaka9
Yeah I was about to say, $800? That's cute. That'll buy you a park bench for the night in San Francisco.
WubbaLubbaDubbDub
I feel you..
jeandolly
It'll buy you a cardboard box next to a bench in Tokio.
StarvingGarbage
Yeah whoever posted this has a pretty optimistic view of new York real estate prices.
SpaceSpeed
Like one of those nice nuns, or one of those really mean nuns with the "best behaviour" rulers?
thestainlesssteelratsavestheworld
Depends. Bills included?
SpaceSpeed
No. But... you're only half a mile away from a Circle Line stop
thestainlesssteelratsavestheworld
Pass me my Doc Martins. Anything to get out of zone 6
SpaceSpeed
Alright, one more caveat in this thought experiment. You can't use Doc Martens, only these - http://imgur.com/jx0dopw
Swunt
you wanna know whats funny? thats probably what the company pays a month for the place you rent from.
Xelbair
you can always go for a "genuine harry potter experience" in zone 5 of london for that.
AvJeo
I do believe he is refering to renting a single bedroom in a flat with other occupants... In Oslo, i basically paid 1/2
AvJeo
600 for a bed and a wardrobe. Sharing a flat with 3 other random people.
BermondseyRising
I'm renting out two rooms in my flat- £600 and £500. Maybe I should up it? But I want to be fair to my lodgers.
ROBooth
Yeah definitely don't up it. I think that's a fair price
Cojesa
It depends on area, size and quality of accommodation etc. If you have good lodgers I would let sleeping dogs lie.
BermondseyRising
Zone 1 big rooms lots of light newly renovated
BermondseyRising
No lodgers yet, looking for some good ones
Nahmy
I pay about that much for 100 square metres (3 bedroom) in Berlin!
jeandolly
That is why the cool people gravitate to Berlin now. Its a big capital city and its cheap. Won't stay that way... the yuppies will follow.
Cere4l
as someone who lives in a village. thats cheap? o_o im never moving to a city.
Nahmy
Oh that happened a long time ago. Its full of vacuous hipsters now.
jeandolly
Sure, first artists, then hipsters... and then the rich people will come and the houseprices will skyrocket. Gentrification in action.
Nahmy
Fine by me! I much prefer rich people to artists and hipsters.
