Heck even in the greater LA area you could live with 50k. Plenty of poorer cities where rent is cheaper. People just take the average found online to shit talk rent everywhere. I work in Orange County and rent is crazy here. Between my fiancee and I we couldn’t afford to even rent where we work. Maybe some more northern orange county cities.
I live 15 miles out which isn’t a lot but with traffic it’s 30-40 minutes on good days and upwards of an hour on bad.
I really don’t have it all that bad compared to other people in LA/orange county but I wish I could live in the apartments down the street and just walk/bike here instead of driving.
Yea in comparison it isn’t all that bad, but 15 miles shouldnt take anyone more than 20 minutes. I would love to just take public transit instead but it doesn’t work for this commute unfortunately.

People need to live where they work. How is your commute and what are costs of car ownership?

Under 1 hour aint too bad… for US car commute.
