26yo, 110k, 1.9K, it could be cheaper but since I don't go out much, the money saved for not going out offsets the expenses for a nice apartment.

Late 20s with 10 YOE and my base is 160K (spouse is around 140K) we pay 2600 a month on our mortgage.

We are debt free from school but have 3 kids under the age of 4.

So looks like a majority of y’all pay less then what half a paycheck would be. Time for me to move😭😭
