Sorry but there's a reason suburbs exist. When you get slightly older and you want more space to raise a family and want a safe area you move to the suburbs. Also I'm not American so I don't know, but 2100 bucks on food sounds like a lot in a month. My wife and I live on probably $600. Also just from a budgeting perspective when you say > Entertainment (Netflix shows, sporting events, social functions, w/e getaways) You need to be more explicit with where your spending comes from, because that budget is $600/month of with 1.6% is going to netflix.
