I respectfully disagree. LA is one of the least affordable metros when factoring in income. It gets even worse when you start looking for a place with a specific commute, washer/dryer, adequate off street parking, etc.

It's not. Median rents in NYC is over $4k. LA is nowhere near that.

"Factoring income" is also a non-sensical qualifier for how expensive a metro is. Using that measure then Miami would be considered far and away the most expensive metro in the country.
