      Oh, sorry, more than 3/4 million. That’s definitely totally affordable for someone moving into a new area with no job lined up.

          Where does this person get a job in this small Indiana town, by the way?

              So you don’t actually know in other words. Helpful. You know jobs aren’t all interchangeable, right? They’re not going to be going from driving a bus to working on a farm for even remotely the same pay.

                Turns out you can drive a bus just about anywhere. My area has homes in the 100s and is hiring bus drivers right now. My friend’s husband is literally a bus driver - my kids’ bus driver, to be precise.

                My best friend, who can’t get a good job because he’s a felon, closed on a house this week for 160k.

                It’s weird and kind of strangely insulting that you think most people in the Midwest are fucking farmers. We aren’t.

                  A city bus driver or a school bus driver? Because the latter get paid shit and as for the former, they don’t have those in small Indiana towns. So, try again. What job in a small Indiana town should they get? Name the job.

                    gets paid shit

                    can afford a home

                    Weird.

                    Also Cincinnati is like 15 miles away from where I live. They’re always hiring bus drivers.

                    Just stop lying dude. You’re not from here. You think most Hoosiers are farmers for shits sake.

                    Edit: Hoosiers are what people from Indiana call themselves btw
