Yah, one of the bad things about Reno is it's not really that BIG.

It seems like there is a lot to choose from but in reality there are only a few nice areas. And when we say nice that's 350k and above.

Then you drop down a couple notches to neighborhoods like mine that are on the verge of being a "ghetto".

My roommate moved out so he could buy a house with his sister and he lives in a tiny place off california st(near downtown reno, Austin) and he is paying double to live there. ON top of that he just got robbed also. His house is behind the YMCA, ouch.

And then you have the Commute Areas which is commitment. I would consider living in Fernley I don’t mind the drive too much, but I might actual be able to find a nice warehouse job out there.

And then there are the dregs like Sun Valley and the like.

I'll admit there are some decent houses in the Sun Valley/Stead Housing Developments. Actual houses not mobile homes. But they are surrounded by trailers and awfulness.

A house down my street was appraised at 260k and is asking 280k starting. Damn. Me and my brother got lucky and the house we are my parents decide to refinance instead of selling to my brother which means a smaller payment for me, BUT now I have to look at saving for house of my own. Which really blows unless one of my job prospects comes to fruition.

So I’m with Scott hoping to bubble will pop just in time for me to buy something, or find a girlfriend who is total baller who is willing to go in on a house.

Life Sucks.

I’m moving to Nebraska.
