    You can afford a 2 bedroom apartment now though. You just need to sleep in your car because you live 300 miles from work.

      That is one good thing that WFH did. I know several people who moved from LA to our middle of nowhere town where a nice 3br house is under $150k.

        3 bed room houses were $86k in my town 5 years ago. No influx of people have come here, in fact less are moving here because the colleges are struggling, but housing proces have doubled.
