Funnily enough, I live in the “Deep South”.
- BirAdam 4y agodrive out to a rural area and ask ppl their household income, not a boomer retiree, but a middle aged couple with a few kids. averages: georgia 61980 tennessee 54665 alabama 51734 south carolina 56227 now, people with these incomes would have a house and a car or two. they would shop at regular stores and do more or less okay until quite recently with inflation. to put this in a more real sense, in several of these states, you could until 2019 find large (around 1300 sqft) two bedroom apartments for less than 1k/mo if you left major cities out of your search. if you wanted to buy a home, you could get one at around 2000 sqft for less than 200k.
