People grew up there and lived there before prices became so insane.

In the 90's I rented a 2 bedroom for $600 a month and split it with 2 friends ($200 each).

Even just 10 years ago or so, you could still rent somewhere for around $1000 a month, although the prices were going up every year.

In the last decade it's just gotten rediculous. Rent has almost doubled on average in that time, from already being fairly high at that point. You can't rent in a bad part of town, a crappy place, for less then $1500 now in most cases. It's crazy.

You can maybe.....maybe....rent a room somewhere for $700-$800 if your lucky. That is about the best your gonna get unless you live in a Van.....and there are very few rivers.

Great food there, awesome weather etc....but yeah....not worth it at this point to be honest.
