For those in Texas, can 30k get you a studio and a little decent life until you finish education/ schooling?

I need to leave Florida, I just can't take this place much more.

You can, but not much will change leaving Florida for Texas.
 
what wrong with floirda?

Housing is too expensive... I just got this new job paying 14 a hour and I still can't afford to live on my own with my other bills, I have to pay everything just to get a little place.

Not to mention I'm single and in my mid 30's, I'm very stressed out.

I just wanted a little spot of my own while I tackled school for a BA but it seems that won't happen.

How much are apts out there???
 
Hood is bout 600 for a studio, nice areas are about 900 and up for a 1 bedroom. Nowhere in Broward has housing assistance except plantation.
Tha lowest out here is like $400-$500(Bmore).
It ain't tha best of tha best though.
When you come around here you deal with fiends 4real.
 
I know where you can get a cheap lil studio apt for 500. Now you need to kinda explain to me what you mean by "decent lil life". Because....i mean we have different views i guess. You can get the hook up on cable, you'd have to pay your internet though. If you have a car you got it set up pretty nice. Dallas is a big city to get around in. You should first make sure you have a job before you move out here. And then figure out where it is in relation to where you could be living. The spot i'm talking about is in Lancaster, it's south of Dallas but 20 min from downtown.

I ain't there yet but I was thinking of just quitting my job and bouncing up and staying with a friend. I will probably do some slave work until I get a decent job but the COL is much better.

My boy lives around plano, close to little elm.

That's what's great about Texas. The cost of living is low, so 30k is cool. You can live okay on 30 here in Houston.
 
:dance::dance:not the good life!!! but you can get by.. i stay in oak cliff, dallas.725 2 bedroom apt, and every apt got freaks who fuck for fun not bread!!! i love it.
 
You can make it, and still have alil left over to go to "d.g's" if you spent it"right"!

Lancaster is straight, but funky town cheaper
 
I used to live in south florida

The Cost of living is insane for the lower wages they pay.

Apartments be like 1200 and up for 2/2 in decent area..Yet u cant find a job paying over 15 bucks.

No wonder they have so many foreclosues down there.

My boy moved to Houston from sofla he said houston is cheaper money goes further!!
 
what aprt of dallas u live bruh? :confused:
i see nothing but fine sistas and bubblebooty snowbunnies where i live.

im actually in south Garland.....right on the Mesquite golf course. but i grew up on the southside before I moved to Atlanta and all my fam lives in south Dallas, DeSoto, and Oak Cliff....so im there more than anywhere else if im not at work.
 
Guess I won't be going to Dallas.I hate when niggaz have that mentality :smh::smh:.

:lol: Man I think they both think that way. We had both types at Oklahoma University and them dudes would always get into it about Houston vs Dallas.

One thing them folks would agree on was no one from Oklahoma was fucking with them. I don't give a fuck cool ass dude is a cool ass dude shit he could be from Montana lol. Majority of dudes I met from Texas are cool as shit though they just representing.

I remember when I was in college it would always be some Dallas cats throwing up some D town stuff. Talking to friends at other colleges Dallas folks did the same there. Always wanting to fight.
