    Your biggest expenses as an adult tend to be kids(daycare/food/etc) then housing, so yeah its no suprise people making 60-70k who dont have to worry about those would be able to do real well.

      Even then, location matters a hell of a lot for housing prices.

      My 2b2b 1200sqft house in small town Texas cost me $110k in 2018, and the value really hasn’t changed a ton since (I think it’s up to 150 now).

      At the time, a comparable house in Houston was at least twice that.
