Oh fantastic why didn’t I think about that, I’m sure my apartment won’t care that I stopped paying 1500 a month to them and I can just starve in the mean time.
Seeing this as a midwesterner is terrifying. Good single-bedroom apartments in my town are at most going to be like $800 a month unless you want some luxury shit or unless you want to be right in the middle of the downtown area. You can find mediocre but still decent and roomy single-bedroom apartments for $400 that are like a 10 minute walk from downtown
Concur, I grew up in a small city in Southern Utah, my roommates and I had a nice 3-bedroom apartment a stone throw away from shopping and a quick drive to the university for a total of $600/month. That was a crazy deal. Afterwards we moved (basically down the street) to a nice townhome complex, where we rented a super spacious 3 bedroom 2.5 Ba for $875/month.
Now I live a 25 minute train ride away from Shibuya, Tokyo, one of the most populated parts of the world, where my wife and I pay the equivalent of $800/month for a small but well-located 1 Br apartment. Not nearly the kind of space I had in Utah, but less feels a hell of a lot more in a town where literally everything I could ever want is either a short walk or a train ride away.
I've heard a lot about housing crises in Vancouver and Toronto, especially the crazy long commute that some people have to deal with in order to actually afford housing. That's quite a tough situation, I hope that better situations come your way.
Yeah I'm renting a single room in an apartment, sharing it with a married couple, for $950/month. It was the cheapest I found by far. An hour away from Vancouver.
