That's pretty crazy. I have almost $90 an hour and I can't afford to buy a house either right now.

Edit: although I only about $26/h as my actual salary so that might be why.

I have been living in Philly for a decade now, and in that time, I am not sure I have seen a single new house go up for less than $500k. Everything in the $50k-$300k range has been either an ugly condo or old track housing from the post-WW2 period.

Yeah man it's rough in the city. I also really don't want to live far away, so... 🥲
