Is it? I've been looking at places that aren't the coast recently and was shocked to find how much house you can still get for $300K in most places.
What do middle-class people do with the rest of their money when they can buy a house with $300K?
- api 11y agoNow look into the availability of jobs in those places, and into what those jobs pay.

The job hunt is a little harder(going through it now), but not that much harder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Metropolitan_Statistical_Areas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Metropolitan_Statistic... There's lots of nice places in the top 50 of there that aren't crazy expensive.
