> everytime I look at moving back to NZ I just get depressed about housing costs.

How does it compare to bay area housing costs?

Probably comparable. I'm in Minnesota though where the cost of living is low but IT wages are relatively high.

I think Minnesota is underrated. Great place to live.

As a New Zealander, I can't afford a home in Auckland. I have 0 desire to ever move back to NZ.

If you can't afford a home in Auckland, you can't afford one in the bay area either.
