Guess I should move away from Seattle then

Seattle priced me out around 2014. I don't know how anyone affords it without a roommate or a six figure job.

No idea. I get legit panic attacks everything I look at rental prices and I need to move asap. Nothing under $2k/mo. seems to even be worth looking at. Or it's a scam.

THATS TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR

Also most places require (income) => (rent * ), so I hope you make at least $72,000 a year if you want a place to live.
