Oh I'd say about $400/mo. But I'm snipped and living the DINK life, so my childcare costs are actually my boat and motorcycle insurance payments.

$1700 for a place in Hyde Park. Edit: 9 months

1260 in Mueller for a 4 year old

~$1200/mo in Crestview for 2 yr old

$600 for 3 days and 5 Hours/day for a 3 yo North Austin (Lamar)

Ha ha, true. We couldn’t afford full time care on a single Big4 salary / equivalent Google salary.

~1600 in Leander for 6 mo old

1450/month he’s 3 —- Four Points area

1650/month (full time) south Austin, 1.5 yr old.

North Austin - was paying $1200/month full time (2 y/o) and $250/week drop-in (5y/o) in 2019-early 2020. When both were in full time daycare it was about $2200/month (2017-2019).

$1,400 for an 18-month-old in Leander. Much better than the $3k we used to pay in another state

Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?
