A couple years back during covid, in Finland. House prices here have been creeping up as well but not as aggressively as where you have lived. I doubt that's the case in all of the US, there must be places with more modest prices. I "downgraded" to a smaller city when I went from renter to owner, couldn't have bought a home to my liking in Helsinki due to the prices.
Well there's the issue. Finland isn't experiencing anywhere near the level of housing cost inflation of the US, Canada, and Australia.
And cheaper areas in these countries are cheaper for very good reasons (they suck to live in/have no jobs available).
They have Social Services too if I'm not mistaken.
Sure. If you live in Cuntass, next to a half dead tree and 500 million mosquitoes
To change the subject completely. I hope my country embraces the work from home option. Especially the public sector should experiment with this form of hiring. People living in all parts of our country is a political goal.
I don't know why southern or "cheaper" states haven't embraced legislation guaranteeing a right to work from home when available. It seems like it would only be a boon to low-COL states to have a larger number of well-paying professionals in the state.
So when you said it's possible to buy a house in your 20s you meant in Finland. Then you make a wild assumption about the US to try to justify what you said? Wut? Dude you are misrepresenting the situation left and right.
Sure there are places houses aren't insanely expensive, but they are generally many hundreds of miles away from where there are jobs available that may pay enough to purchase said house.
Having lived in Europe it amazes me how many Europeans believe that because it's still in the country, it's not all that far. But if you compare directly a few hundred miles is usually in another country in Europe, where in the USA it's more often still in the same state.
