MODERATORS
These stories are always bullshit. They can't afford a 3000sqft single family home on an acre inside the beltway of a HCOL city. Anyone making $250k can easily afford a condo or townhome anywhere in the US. If you really need useless interior volume or wasteful yard space then you can move farther out and afford that.
I beg you to show me what you can find in the Portland OR area for 250K. Even if you look outside about an hours drive there isn't much. The best I could find was a 2 Bed 2 Bath with about 1000 sq/f. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/7545-N-Olin-Ave-201-Portland-OR-97203/350854324_zpid/
Please don't disparage others situations or minimize a situation because you have the benefit of living in a place you can afford with a job that lets you live there.
