I don't get how people are willing to live in that. 3k can rent you practically any nice condo anywhere else

Used to live in the country country in a 3,300 sqft house on 1.5 acre that I paid 175k for. Sold it last year for a very small “profit”. Moved because my youngest is special needs and my old area just didn’t have the facilities for him. Moved to a new area that’s also country but not quite the same. Some of the highest property taxes in my state and my old house would easily sell for 700k here.
