Not a problem at all :) For me, I am already in the cheapest neighborhood that is reasonably close and liveable to my job. I am not the world's most employable person, so I really have a hard time leaving stable jobs in search of higher paying ones. But mostly, I am in this area for my girlfriend, who needs to be here for her very high paying job that is more niche and non-transferable to other cities I feel. One day our finances will maybe be linked, but for now I am content to just barely break even :)
