Cheap Webmaster Living in the U.S.
 

Where is it cheap to rent a house in a good neighbourhood near some good schools for the kids around and where it's great to work at home?

Mark

That is a question???????
Or request???????

Good neighborhood + good schools = high property prices.

Unless you're in the middle of no where.

I think he was asking about the U.S. not Australia.

good schools in the USA...lololololololololololololololololololololo.. ..our school system got us where we are today..a bunch of pre-occupied TV watching allowing our Goverment to increase powers due to the fear factor..good schools..try home schooling if you want your children to give a damn about anything that may matter..

Stay out of Florida, the North East and California...the midwest has what you are looking for


Mr. Romance

Not Rhode Island! Thanks to an apathetic public we have public corruption, which means the unions have taken over, which means high taxes and poor schools. We are the highest taxed state in the union.

:mad:

Move to oklahoma and send your kids to private school...problem solved

yes good idea..pay more for there indoctrination..good idea..

This is the first decent post I have ever seen so make on GFY...

Paul, Have you ever lived in the US? Bought a house here, paid taxes etc. I have a guess you've put your opinionated mouth in gear again about the US without knowing what the fuck you are talking about.

Depends on what exactly you are looking for? Cheap housing can be found in parts of the midwest for example and if you pick the right area, the schools for kids are more than fine.

What do you call cheap? Do you need a city with plenty of night life?

don't live in America :)

cheap would be about to rent a house with 4 bedrooms 2-3 restrooms with shower and bath and a garage for 2 cars. of course cable access and a walmart about 15 minutes away - and all of this for about 400-600$ rent a month. nightlife isn't important to me at all; I can fly to vegas once a year and believe me, that's enough :)

cya, Mark

ref code?

zip code???

A house for $600/month? Good luck with that one!:2 cents:

Boston suburbia isn't bad, though it isn't cheap

This is Des Moines Ia. to a T. Perfect place for porn, lots of poor people who will work for 9 bucks a hr. BUT you have to work under the radar cause its dead center of the christian Taliban. (fuck me, my spelling today sux)

Seriously, you can get a 2 bd/1 bth - nice -(equal to a 1200-1400 unit in la) for around 450-500 a month. but why rent when prices are so cheap to buy.

and yes, if your in the mindset nightlife is only a flight away to vegas, its quite livable.

still............................. you have to like 4 seasons weather. And fat chics.. lots of fat chics. (Another motherlode though for the right website. HUGE boobs to, I'm talking bushel basket sized boobs.) When I'm there to visit I never saw so many huge hootered chics. errr, big gals. The chics tend to be string bean types, but a LOT of blondes.)

If you can deal with snow and three months of unbearable cold you're looking for North Central Wisconsin

hmm , What do you mean under cheap?

if you are considering, let me know.

right genius. good answer. i was going to say "live in a bunker in the mountains of idaho too" - we're like brothers. we should go huntin' together.

i like des moines...i see alot of it on HGTV. Looks like a nice place to live. Will try to visit there this summer...getting tired of NYC....

are you fucking crazy? or you live in a shitty place.

and yes i have lived there and he is fucking right there is no such thing as cheap = good+good in USA

name me 1 place and i bet i can say it is the middle of nowhere.

Brownwood,tx

For what you list, I'm afraid you're going to have to double your budget, even for the bargain (but still nice) locations. I really feel sorry for anyone on a middle-class income today. If you weren't playing the real estate game the last few years, simply to keep ahead of the insanity, then I don't know how you ever catch up. Crisis coming. :2 cents:

better leave the US :) i suggest belize, costa rica or south africa

it can be cheap if you live in the middle of nowhere.

It can be found everywhere except for good neighborhoods in the exciting cities.

The biggest city you will find with that is Philadelphia, which is the cheapest you will find in the northeast. $700 will still get you a 1 bedroom in a decent part of Center City.

The south as whole is fairly cheap as you can find similar deals in Houston, Dallas, Memphis all the way to Miami (away from the beaches) Austin is probably the best choice of the southern states.

The midwest is cold. No reason to do that unless you have to.

I don't know much about the northwest but I'm willing to bet there's some great deals in the Seattle area and Portland definitely.

You can also forget about any cool parts of california.

Vegas is pretty cheap off the strip. Phoenix isn't too bad either.

Try Arkansas, I hear they have some good schools and very decent housing.

Depends what you mean by cheap, but southern Texas or Arizona might be a good deal

very nice house - btw: how much would it be to buy?

Mark

I'd also like to know that

A really nice looking neighbourhood, just like in the american dream

I agree with DaddyHalbucks. Rhode Island housing market is still pretty rediculous as are taxes and the education system is being watered down year after year. (although I'm sure we are not the only state that waters down the corriculum)

-- see, I even had to spell check curriculum :(

East L.A.

Everything is relative, but the cheapest in the US which fits those parameters, as a couple have said, must be the mid-West.

Around here (SE Kansas) for example, good 4-5 bedroom houses go for $400-$600 a month and at least by US standards the schools are reasonable (one in particular). You can live on a decent sized plot in town or get a few acres in the country.

In terms of entertainment, dining, etc it's a million miles away from city life, but that is seen as a bonus by some. If small-small-town life isn't for you, there are larger places where rent may go up to around $1,000.

Distances between one place and the next can be pretty big, but in driving-time terms, since there is no traffic congestion, the gap narrows.

Yeah it's not hard to find for $600/mo. as long as you are somewhere in the middle of the country basically. Check apartments.com for example or somewhere like that. It'll even show newspaper ads for the search area you select.

Unless your kid is gifted you wont find a good school in a cheap neighborhood, most of public schools outside rich areas are useless, prep schools are the way to go nowadays.

how much do such prep schools cost in a year?
