Where can I get some of that $1200 rent that isn’t in the middle of some hillbilly backwater?

I had a 2 bedroom in Albuquerque for 1100 last year, with horrible noise pollution but still.

I'm stuck in my 2 bedroom townhouse apartment hybrid for 1125 because a studio around me is 1200 a month (or anywhere in range of my office). I live alone, and sleep on my couch, I don't need the rooms, but I can't leave.

Great job capitalism!
