3. Real Estate is insanity...

Everything else is typical for a large city.

My parents moved us out of a small house in L.A. in 1992. We moved to Colorado, where they bought a freaking mansion and STILL had to pay capital gains taxes.

5. Be more specific

An average 1 bedroom to rent is about $1200/monthly
