14. $2000 + utilites

upwards of $30,000/year (IF you can even find a rental)... that is about the median income in the United States... Unsustainable

I am so grateful that I own my house... although my daughter just got a job and can't find rental under $2500+ utilities... government job but it doesn't pay enough to justify that
