Wow.....$850/month for a one-bedroom?
I live in a small town in rural PA, where the cost of living is very low. My one-bedroom is $400/month, utilities included. The people who grew up in this area (I am a "transplant"
) are shocked by how expensive it is!! But I digress.
Anyway, I don't really see anything wrong with living at home into your 20s, as long as it's for financial reasons or something like that. If you're just living at home because you're too lazy to move out on your own.....and yes I have known people like this....that's a different story.
But I'm not really one to talk. My family lives only a little over an hour away from my current place of residence, and I visit them a few times a month and my mother picks up the tab on all my groceries and does laundry and stuff.......so sometimes I might as well be living at home.
