    Stop making it a life-goal to go 1.5 million dollars in debt to own a stucco home in a vast ocean of identical stucco homes and maybe buy some property by a small town and sacrifice the luxury of convenience and being able to get doordash whenever you want and instead have a little garden or something.

    If the market decided that living in suburban hell wasn’t profitable anymore, they would stop paving over vast tracts of land to unroll a sea of terracotta roofs as far as you can see like a rolling ocean of crippling debt and HOA fines.

      1. Buying a property outside a small town defeats the purpose of being in a walkable city, no?
      2. Why are you assuming I want to live in a “stucco house”, or a single family home, at all?
      3. Why are you assuming I order doorfash, and dont have a garden (I do have a garden, and I have never ordered from doorfash.)

      you dont have to assume the worst all the time fella. this is lemmy, not twitter.

      Not necessary. I live in Manhattan and the street canyons are full of doordasher ebikes, and grocery store isles are jammed with instacarter trailer carts which they then hitch up to more ebikes.
