The top cities for buy/rent ratios are not necessarily the largest. And I know quite a few people who own properties in other countries who are neither rich nor European. One was an English IT contractor living in Australia who bought a small property in Auckland.
Your "domestic" is not the same as everyone else's.
- natrius 16y agoI realize that emigrants of modest means exist. My point is that they're few in number. I also realize that "domestic" depends on one's frame of reference. It is irrelevant to my point. International comparisons of rent-vs.-buy ratios are mostly useless unless you're very mobile or investing in international real estate.
- krschultz 16y agoIt's the buy/rent ratios of the top 50 largest cities, not the 50 cities with the best buy/rent ratio. As for it not having US in the title. It is a .com. Technically that means it is in the US. If it was "Rent vs Buy, Top Cities" on Trulia.co.uk, I would not have clicked through becuase I would have known they were not talking about the US. I don't see why every single time someone posts something they need to qualify it as "IN THE US!" when its on a .com already.
- somabc 16y ago.com is a generic TLD though (originally commercial now open to anyone) not anything to do with a Geographic Area. The intention was for .US to be the USA's TLD. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.us http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.us
