A while back I honestly though about moving into the city. Right now I commute 35ish or so minutes, but I have an 1100 sq. ft. house on just shy of an acre. House was 72K.

This is typical for the area I looked at. 1/2 that cost, no HOA, 10-15 minute commute to downtown, desirable area of town, walking distance to hipster shit, etc. Right now, the way my lot is set up, I can go outside and piss off my deck and nobody can see me. Here, I can read the neighbor's newspaper from my windows. Ultimately decided to stay put as I am almost done paying this place off.
