More accurately, houses are expensive in places where many people want to live. The recommendation would be to buy a house where people dont want to live, which is kinda lame.

Thank you, the suggestions of "Just move" are wild to me. People create a whole life with friends, kids, family in a location and saying "Just move" to afford a house is ridiculous.

"Just move" is what humans have done since time immemorial. There are folks who complain and those who act.

It is lame at first. But then eventually people in a similar situations move in, and you are surrounded by people who wanted to live in major league city, but settled for a minor league city. Then you make friends and your situation is not so bad.
