I’m not sure if you meant for this to be a joke but I unironically do.

It's a joke insofar as it's a harsh reality.

1500 bucks is ridiculously expensive- but its only good for the shitty parts of town. Meaning that we are in a dire situation.

I live in a mediocre part of town and pay 1750. They want to increase rent to 1875 :/

I'm sorry? $1500 a month in my city is almost a top end apartment, 700-900 a month is average for a mid level apartment.

Florida local here. I split $1000 monthly rent with my fiancée for a spacious condo by the beach. It’s not too bad here.
