like nigga, if the city is too expensive just move away from the city
are you retarded?

Also, why would you want to live in a multicultural, crime ridden, socialist infested, expensive, dirty, prone to terrorist attacks, packed, hellhole?

I live in a comfy rural zone, I can't even remember the last time I saw a black person, never been robbed, etc.

You could ask the same thing to someone living in NYC, LA or SF. Its because that's where all the employment opportunities are at. London is the financial capital of the world but unfortunately the jobs here pay shit since you're being taxed to death

>London is the financial capital
>what is Wall Street

a boomer hippy with his VW van can't afford to remenice anymore

the employment opportunities are there because working there is fucking expensive

cause and effect kinda goes both ways in economic situations like that

I have a VW bus listen to the grateful dead and smoke weed sometimes but I want to see all likes gassed niggers hung and sandniggers glasses does that make me hippy or a Nazi

Walk or take the bus.
Much like owning pets, owning a car is a privilege.
If you cant afford the upkeep or the allotment of space for when its not in use then you have no business owning one.

I bet its not even automatic

>yurofags

Lol. The prices there are absolutely outrageous. Muh demand and supply. Nah. London is just fucked. Compare renting a room in London, NY, Singapore - basically any big city in the world and you'll see that London is just ridiculously expensive.

Because they fell for the city meme
This isn't the 20th century anymore, we have great means of communication now

Most of these people living in big cities get fucked in the ass by rent and other things and can barely make ends meet - unless you already have a family home there it just isn't worth it. Just look at all the faggots complaining that they make over 100k in a big city and can barely make ends meet.

I just want people that are either degenerates or sub IQ 110 to die, is that so wrong?

lol no you stupid rural and suburban retards don't know how great it is living in the city

I dont see the appeal, the few times iv been to the city iv fucking hated it

Too loud, smells like shit, foreigners and beggars aplenty

meanwhile in America

>6 beds 5 baths 4,000 sqft
>$225,000

>Amazing big yellow 1910 Old Victorian mansion converted to a four-plex. Over 4000 square feet of living space, we have a recent appraisal to show the breakdown. Two 2 bedroom apartments each unit over 1100 square feet, collecting $750 in rental income and two one bedroom units that are right at 900 square feet collecting $445 and $525. Lockable storage space for each unit in the basement. Washer and dryer in unit two and a house washer and dryer in the basement. Non-smoking, no pets building. Seven off street parking spots. All electric house. Separate electric meters for each unit. New roof in 2011. Always full, easy to rent. Great cash flow. We have not maxed out the potential on rents. The price is $56.25 per square foot on the living space. With a $25,000 down payment on a 5% 30 year mortgage the payments would be $1391 a month Including taxes and insurance. At the current rent income and costs the return on your $25,000 investment would be 42% each year.

They sell parking spaces for millions in NY

>What the fuck happened to the housing market in urban areas?
Western governments and the boomer generation thought it would be a good idea to turn property into an investment scheme to get rich quickly.

Except its the Gen Xers and millennials who are the ones having to rent and will never own property now.

All so boomers have as nice retirement fund to retire with. We don't even get the scraps cause the majority of them wont leave their money to their children (Boomers hate everyone)

This is how things were in feudal Europe. The land lords (land owners) had all the power.

Hey thanks I've been looking for my next rental property

It's made from wood. Is it even double glazed?

Not everyone can leave the cities tho.

Sadly the majority of the work is in the city so people have no other option.

I agree with you tho. You're not going to be happy in a city and cant afford to live there, then leave.

Cities are over rated and the people who live in them are genuinely horrible.

Not even closer to true, but keep pretending like grandpappy fucked you

>What the fuck happened to the housing market in urban areas?
Jews and capitalism, a deadly combination

If I sneeze next to it will it be knocked down or should it survive mostly ?

of course a rural and suburban retard would hate the city

your minds are too underdeveloped to comprehend the beauty of cities and the diversity within them
the smells, sights, and sounds of diversity are beautiful and you're just too dumb to recognize it

Whats the truth then?

The people with 5 or 6 investment properties are 90% boomer aged. All the advertisements on TV and Radio here are directed at boomers.

They have all the investment properties and 60% of rents are subsidised by the government because no one can afford to rent anymore.

I guess Nebraska is kind of like England

>yet London is full of welfare niggers

So you're saying its good because you've just gotten used to the loudness, bad smell and general shit that embodies a city

Lmao!!!!

>Not recognizing bait
How many times does he have to say diversity before you think something may be wrong? Fuking bongs I swear.

he's bating,
but yeah, sometimes looking at big buildings is cool and all
but it's not worth getting stabbed in the metro by some cracked up nigger for pocket change

Major Cities are outdated when compared to their original use. They havent been really relevant since the 70s. Ghia-hippy-earthers should love that the environmental blight that are major cities are no longer needed, but no all these assholes flock to live in the most unsustainable way possible and help pass feel good laws to make the rest of us suffer.

Why do you hate the earth so much to think cities are a good thing?

the diverse sights of gay strip clubs, night clubs full of degenerate women who look like hookers and sometimes are, modern "art" museums, rats in the subway, shivering homeless men, needles everywhere, etc.

Yeah. Nope. When it comes to cities: if not gay, stay away.

That's what I keep telling people.

>How are you going to have a clean environment with millions of people cramped into small areas (Cities)

Its the left wingers who want the biggest populations but at the same time they are going insane with the environmental impact its all having.

The thing that cracks me up the most is they don't care that Africa is over populating itself but they demand white people stop breeding.

It's from 1910 so it should be good quality. Old US houses are usually very sturdy unlike ugly mcmansions.

that building probably is mostly social housing, containing vermin from Bangladesh who pay £320 a month

The Urban areas are slated for stack and pack so they can keep all the human resources under their purview.The UN would like you to live in an apartment about this big...or smaller.To save the planet! It's the brave new world.The inner city ppl just bitch about Muh Race but the joke is on them in many other arena.
Stack and pack forces you to relax in the commieunity area.The apartments make ppl go mad.No room for even your bike they want you to ride youtube.com/watch?v=Up7gy6zY2fQ
When you die in it they can clean out your few possessions and move another sucker in there.

Be a communitarian human resource! The UN has go to go.
Communitarians always must put the needs of the many before their own needs.The Community (LGBT or whatever) commie unity leader of THEIR choosing to be your voice! You have no say!
philosophybasics.com/branch_communitarianism.html
They will drain you to deaththats the idea while they say it's good for the commieunity!
The Big Society" is Communitarianism
youtube.com/watch?v=xoCXZ_oKCDo

Urban areas make EZ pikins cuz all the human cattle is concentrated! You'll also be bathed in 5G 24Ghz radiation a lot easier in the commieunity Kill ya faster.Whoops you got cancer aww

actually New York is very expensive to rent, but you can easily buy apartments for the price of that garage.

We have houses here that are twice if not triple that age and they are made from solid brick with proper insulation. If you aren't an idiot and you live outside of Londanistan, preferably the North, you can get a decent solid brick house with a bit of land for the same price you would pay for that wooden monstrosity.

>1910
>wood

thanks but I'd rather have my $225k investment be an investment and not a burden due to the constant renovations that I'll need to go through to keep the house up along with the potential hurricanes

>friends all get jobs in big cities
>they are all hyped about their $100k/y starting jobs
>get a job in Alaska
>$80k/y starting
>a couple of them are paying as much as I'm making a year in rent alone
>they live worse than they did in college
>While housing costs are a little higher than what I'm used to its only a quarter of my income rather than three quarters

They fell for the stem meme and the city meme. At least the stem meme hasn't burned me yet. Might freeze me...

>Live in Sacramento and commute to San Francisco for work
>Make decent money, enough to pay bills
>San Francisco residents caught on that it's cheaper to live outside of the city so they move to Sac
>Suddenly rent and the cost of living almost doubles if not triples
>Pointless laws keep getting pushed like the one that charges you to use plastic bags

Yeah, okay.

just wait till muslims are majority there, they will plummet

...

Estate agents in London are giving away cars with houses now as an incentive for people to buy. Nobody is buying there anymore, it's a shit hole and I think people who have made London wages are realizing they can move to the North, live a fairly big city with airports and all the other shit you get living in or near a major city, and they can have a detached house with a couple of acres of land.

>Live in Sacramento and commute to San Francisco for work

That's a three hour commute. I doubt any Bay Area techies are living there

buy it and rent it out for a stream of income

My house is solid brick and cheap as fuck. Mcmansions and wooden houses are not the only shit you can buy here. Older towns and cities have shit tons of brick houses. Hell, where I live the ghetto is entirely large solid brick houses. You only see cheap wooden houses parts of the US that are relatively new.

Wood construction is cheaper and can be built to be just as strong as masonry. Wood also performs better in earthquakes.

Just don't get lazy Mexicans to build your house. The only problem with American housing right now is that uneducated and untrained people are building most of the houses.

t. Engineer.

>hurricanes
>Nebraska

No, it's mainly service industry and other low skill jobs. All the important jobs in SF have a bus/van that picks up employees and drives them where they go.

I live in the Rural North East and although i might hate being in cities i thank god for them being giant containment zones for all the undesirables i shudder at the thought of something that forces niggers and degenerates to migrate to the country side

What do you do in Alaska? Watch snow melt? IMO cities have lots of people you can meet and hang around with.

Taking the train is about 1:45 and pretty comfy; I am from the bay but live in Davis for school. I don't think buying or renting in the bay is a good idea in the foreseeable future.

When the middle class has vanished from cities, they will come for you in the country.

There is no escaping the brown horde. They will chase us an our assets till the end of the Earth. AND WE FUCKING ALLOW THEM TO DO IT.

>want to live and work in big city
>get a "high paying" job there
>get packed in some minuscule apartment
>multiculturalism
>crime
>pollution
>most if not all of your income is spent on rent, utilities and just surviving
>some guy working some menial job 500km away and earning much less can actually save more money than you and have a less stressful and more healthy life

This is the city meme, its pretty much a feudal system, and you are the peasants.

I knew a lot of people that came from the bay and just commuted to work either through carpool or through train. My job didn't have a bus or anything like that but since I left early in the morning I'd get there in maybe two hours and a half hours at worst.
It's a pretty comfy drive and they paid me for the commute. I actually miss that job. I'm working at a local place now and the pay is crap, or will be once they raise the minimum wage again.

>Quadruple your population through importing almost the entire third world
>Wonder why demand for housing and jobs is so high

B-but leftism is supposed to raise wages and decrease housing costs!

Totally true

The best life is now located in the countryside. With the internet and modern commodities living in rural areas is paradise. All the advantages of small developed societies with none of the drawbacks of the human infestation of big cancer cities.

And that's without taking nature into account

>plebian doesn't know Alaska is practically a rainforest in summer
Literally the best state, but the mosquitos ruin the fun. There's like 27 different species of mosquito up there.

Plus, some places in the lower 48 can get a worse winter than Anchorage or Fairbanks.

>tfw make $72k in Austin, my rent is less than a quarter of my pay after taxes, and I live 5 minutes from my office

They fell for major coastal city meme.

Wealthy people own lots of property. Increasing the price of that property via government policy thus makes them wealthier.

>What the fuck happened to the housing market in urban areas?


Capitalism. The market solution would be to simply build lots of low value housing. However in doing so you would decrease the value of the homes in that area, which is something that the locals will simply not accept. Thus builders instead opt for building more extravagant and high priced housing in order to turn a profit.

>The only problem with American housing right now is that uneducated and untrained people are building most of the houses.

My neighbors have their own firm. When framing, they notch a wall of 2x4"s to accommodate a diagonal slat. To improve shear resistance, they say, which is what the flipping sheet of plywood to be affixed does. However, they don't glue the plywood on, as they should, and they aren't concerned about cutting through half the thickness of every wall stud in the frame.

I live in one of their houses, so I suppose I'm an idiot, too.
