I dont have much knowledge about cost of living in the US, but I'd imagine it depends on cost of living in the desired place no?
I heard on Reddit about people making about that in a big city and struggling to stay properly afloat, not like I can really trust strangers on the internet, but it sounds plausible according to my own experience...
You're pretty much dead on. My partner and I budget tightly, and make a combined ~60-70k. However, between an elderly dog, an elderly cat, our own chronic conditions, and insane cost of living (relatively compared to a few years ago) we're still paycheck to paycheck ish.
