It would be hard on a turking wage although I know some people do it. You'd have to find roomies for sure and be in a more value city. Definitely not like LA. I love it here. The diversity and difference in cultures and the weather and great things to do make it a wonderful place. If you end up getting a standard job they tend to pay more than other places but you might have to supplement your income
it was definitely a nice change of pace when i visited. ive been to a lot of states and Texas and California are probably my favs. not all of Texas, but honestly Houston is rapidly expanding. i do like living here. just wish the living costs were lower. and of course they're only going to go up as the attraction goes up. catch 22

I am in Pataskala, Ohio. Want to trade homes? You have one less bedroom than I have and pay half of my rent! Please trade?!
Would consider it but I just finished moving 5 months ago. I was in a really nice three bedroom house in a close by neighborhood and was paying $1K a month for rent. Had to move because it's cheaper and we weren't working at the time.

yeah same thing with cities like portland just ask W @WalkingEmphasis all the folks with ok money that lived in norcal moved there and drove the prices up. I have a few friends in the austin area and one in houston. Cool cities. I've been to sxsw in austin a few years ago and it was a lot of fun. I'd say you'll probably enjoy cities like LA, san francisco / san jose , portland, seattle. Great sprawling fun cities with lots to do. Definitely cities that appeal to folks in their 20s and 30s. After that it might get boring :p

San Jose suuuuuuuuuuucks (grew up there, so I know). So boring.

Have also lived in SF. 10/10 would do it again... once I begin making $500K+/year.

That's ridiculous. And people wonder why adult children are living with their parents more and more...
PLUS, you have to earn at least 2.5 times the rent. Some places require 3 or 4 times the rent for everyone living in that apartment. That means that each person has to make at least 30K to live there.
