You can get one a lot cheaper than that, but you're going to have to move somewhere you probably don't want to live.

And lose the money you save on fueling your car?

It kinda depends where you live, the cheaper apartments here are the same distance to work, just on a different side of town.

It's still not worth the grief to live there, for me personally.

I live near one of the worst Philadelphia suburbs to live in (Chester) and even there you're not going to find a one bedroom apartment for $850. You might find a room in a house for that little. On the flip side, I own a small two bedroom house in a very nice suburb that I rent out for $1400 a month. If you can find at least one other human being that you can cohabitate with peacefully, you can do a lot better than trying to find your own place. Easier said than done, I know - I hate living with other people.

Yeah before I got married I had housemates. It sucks but our rent was $750/month for a disgusting 2BR in a bad neighborhood 30 years ago when I was making $6/hr. That's why I moved out of California.

Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.

Rules:

  1. Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.

  2. Respect one another.

  3. All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.

  4. Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.

Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.
