It seems like Millennials are more interested in renting shitty, overpriced apartments in the inner-city desu, my sister and her husband didn’t buy their first house until they were nearly 30

all cities have nice areas and some nice surrounding suburbs

I actually just got a townhouse in Eagan, MN not too long ago with twice that area and for 50k less.

Never understood the need for living close to the cities. I can easily get everything I need right where I'm at.

Expected from normies, however, here in UK our generation is the highest "living with parents" generation since well, since ever lol.

Even with my higher income salary I'm still with my parents because its so ridculous.

People with IQ above 90 or maybe 100 figure out that economically wise to stay with mummy and daddy for as long as possible to build a capital backing before going into super debt/have zero money then having no money when your 30 (other than your "house" doesn't seem to help my parents pay for food with their non-existent pension though)

Because they're a garbage, illiquid investment that requires constant maintenance. The stock market outpaces housing and crypto will vastly exceed both over this decade at the least.

Only reason to buy a house is if you're settling down and starting a family or you plan to rent it out and become a landlord. Otherwise your capital is better off elsewhere. If you really want hassle-free exposure to real estate, buy a REIT ETF and using the divis to pay your rent.

more immigrants a year than houses built a year was probably a mistake lol

also yeah its always technically financially wise to live at home. but thats not really living and many people move for work.

next youll figure out you can live at home and wait for your parents to die and you can just get the house lol. genius.

but yeah housing/rent isnt as fucked here in the US and i make 145k a year.
