I live in Indiana. Nice try though.
Cool. Here's a 3 bed 4 bath, extremely nice house for 350, inside Indianapolis. It was literally the first listing on Zillow. Let me know if you want me to pull up something cheaper.
I live in Ohio. Our markets aren't that different . Now imagine you didn't live in the largest city in Indiana.

Oh, sorry, more than 3/4 million. That's definitely totally affordable for someone moving into a new area with no job lined up.
350k is not 3/4 of a million dollars. It's barely over 1/4 of a million dollars. You also don't have to live inside Indianapolis, because that jacks up prices.
Thinking isn't hard man.
But if that's not good enough here's 3br 1bath also inside Indianapolis for 100k cheaper

You are correct. I meant 1/4.
Where does this person get a job in this small Indiana town, by the way?
You do what everyone who actually lives in Indiana does, and isn't pretending to online for some weird reason, and commute.
Or you buy this 4br for 100k

So you don't actually know in other words. Helpful. You know jobs aren't all interchangeable, right? They're not going to be going from driving a bus to working on a farm for even remotely the same pay.
Turns out you can drive a bus just about anywhere. My area has homes in the 100s and is hiring bus drivers right now. My friend's husband is literally a bus driver - my kids' bus driver, to be precise.
My best friend, who can't get a good job because he's a felon, closed on a house this week for 160k.
It's weird and kind of strangely insulting that you think most people in the Midwest are fucking farmers. We aren't.
A city bus driver or a school bus driver? Because the latter get paid shit and as for the former, they don't have those in small Indiana towns. So, try again. What job in a small Indiana town should they get? Name the job.
gets paid shit
can afford a home
Weird.
Also Cincinnati is like 15 miles away from where I live. They're always hiring bus drivers.
Just stop lying dude. You're not from here. You think most Hoosiers are farmers for shits sake.
Edit: Hoosiers are what people from Indiana call themselves btw
I thought you said a small Indiana town. 15 miles from Cincinnati is a suburb, not a small Indiana town. So now you're not even being consistent. If you want to talk about small Indiana towns with affordable homes, talk about Vermillion County or something. I'm sure you can find a cheap house there. A job not so much.
By the way, who is paying their moving costs, you? And are you certain bus drivers get paid as much in Cincinnati as they are paid where OP lives? Can you assure them of that?
