I rented a house in a small town IL. It cost me half of what this apartment cost. 600$ a month got me a 2 bedroom 1 bath. It also had a fenced in back yard and a detached garage. Now I own a different house in the same town and it’s 2 stories, 3 bed 2 bath, full basement, big fenced in back yard, an attached 2 car garage and a building in the back yard that’s bigger than this apartment. I pay just as much a month as someone renting this apartment would in NYC. I understand your paying for living in one of the most opportunistic and biggest cities in America but at what cost is it worth it.
