“Since there are so many new apartment villages being made, the price of rent for the older apartment complexes should be drastically lowered and made more affordable for people. If you are living in a nice place and being paid well, stay where you are. Living out here is rough, especially money-wise. Most entry level jobs may start off at 50,000 but with the cost of living and other expenses you are spending half of your check before you actually have the money.”
