$154k and it's not visibly falling apart. Is there something wrong with Rochester? Or is it bumfuck nowhere?

It's probably more stagnant/shrinking population that necessarily something explicitly wrong with it. It's like a midsized city and what's nearby are other midsized cities with probably similar population trends. Not close enough to NYC to be a commuter city. I think the usual pressures for housing prices are regional population growth or getting somehow becoming another city's de facto suburb.
Its not a growing place, but it is probably due for ppl to move back. Its got an old town core and low prices.
I went to college in Rochester and stayed for a total of about 15 years - the housing market didn't crash in 2008 because it never was booming in the first place.
Now I'm in the Midwest with racist assholes and over priced homes. If it weren't for the 9-10 months of non-stop overcast weather, I'd strongly consider moving back to Rochester and keep working remotely.
IN COMNUMUNST KORTH NOREA ALL HOUSING BORING GREY
The only thing I find offputting is the floor. I think grey and off-white are fine for walls. I find that strong colors on walls hurt my eyes and just give like almost a burn-in effect. I prefer off-white with just paintings and decorations, so really see not much wrong with this. The fact that it's empty is really what stands out. Throw on a persian rug, a few paintings and some furniture and it'll look fine.
a few paintings
So my tasteful Gundam Wing wall scrolls?

He will never be ballin.
Trowa coming in with the hook shot
Hells yeah
Monochromatic? More like achromatic. Jesus.
The beige exterior looks worse than the interior IMO.
$154K? Cool. Now you can clear PMI in my area.
Why is it called millennial grey? This is the minimalist shit Boomers and Gen X have been doing since 2008
Pretty cheap to live in Pleasantville.
