I'm in one of the suburbs slightly north of orlando. Rent last year went up $400, and I'm guessing it'll probably be similar with this next year.
I've been wanting to move out of this state for years now, but it feels like everywhere else that's comparable in the US is just as expensive if not more.
It's a huge pain for my SO and I
- prottog 4y agoAre your jobs portable, either remotely or by virtue of being in demand in most places? If so, you could easily take a leap into a lower-tier (in size and/or stature) city. You're right that anything comparable in quality is in fact likely comparable in price as well. I personally moved from a tier-1 major metropolitan area to a tier-3 small city, because I found that I stopped caring for the "big city amenities" that made living in the former worth it despite all the pains in the ass. I'm quite happy with my choice.
- mikedelago 4y agoI work remotely, but unfortunately my SO is in-office with the commercial real-estate industry. We looked at a small town in AZ (~40,000 people, iirc) that was beautiful and affordable, but unfortunately it didn't seem like she'd have many job opportunities in that area unless she's able to get a remote role or she wanted to drive to Phoenix or Flagstaff every day.
