A couple each making $19.50/hr at Costco full-time exceeds that rate before taxes. Housing alone eats up almost half of the net income, plus if you have two kids to raise.

If you're making $75,000 a year in most of King County, you're in a 400 foot studio, right? I don't live there and won't live there…

A shitty starter home in a place like Marysville probably runs about $450k these days. With $0 other monthly debt, $75k can't quite qualify for a home at that price.

75k a year means you’re sharing a 2BR apartment in Burien and waiting on payday so you can pay rent/cable and buy groceries.
Literally paycheck to paycheck with no chance…zero…of property ownership.
The American dream of home ownership is on life support. Urban planning is becoming suburban planning. If you’re 23 years old it’s you against blackrock. Good luck, but hey…you voted for it. Or at least you tweet for it while sucking down an 8.00 Starbucks latte.
I’ll be fine. Some others in my age demo will be fine. Fewer in the millennial bracket. Even fewer with Gen Z. Kids younger than that are fucked.
but hey…it’s all Trump’s fault -
Me and Buck got mine. Fuck the losers
