(1) make more money so that you can afford these cities

(2) find a partner who will help you afford these cities

there's affordable housing in idaho, but you are being the male equivalent of a 30+ year old woman in the dating market and are just expecting things to fall into place for you

if you're finding 200k homes in the midwest then you're looking at 50+ year old homes on postage stamp lots in economically depressed areas with bad schools (either white trash or non-white)

its 350k+ for anything desirable, 500k+ for anything good, which is still substantially more affordable than coastal CA and west coast metros, but you've got maybe 5 good months of weather here

If you have that much cash and make 67k but claim you can't afford a house then you're only looking at single family homes in expensive areas.

Great Lakes region is full of cheap homes with a quarter of the world's fresh water. Tons of cheap coastal towns on the lakes.

I mean you could move to a shitty flyover metro area and probably do okay but if you want a modest house in a decent area it's over 1 million.

>A 2000 square foot house is worth nowhere near $800k

Tell us what you think housing in the most desirable 2% of the country should be worth.

The people complaining about how housing is not affordable are single men in their 20s on average incomes looking at the most expensive 10% of the country. It's the equivalent of average women chasing Chad in the dating market.

>60% of the country is living paycheck to paycheck

sounds like people have a spending problem

plenty of cheap housing out there that you can buy with $15/hour
