Well these are more affordable places in sf, not everyone is techie millionaire, you know.

and Nebraska has nice places too, especially if you have a family.

Try to raise a family with 5 kids in sf, and compare to Omaha. I would pick Omaha 10 out of 10 times, if I was not a millionaire

>Try to raise a family with 5 kids

What am I, a farmer? I would pick not doing that 10 out of 10 times regardless of how much money I had.

so we can agree that people can have their own preferences in lifestyle and critique of other people's lifestyle is not mature behavior

Let’s see where this conversation started.

>ah, yes. The American Dream of living in a 50 year old shitbox fixer that costs $2M in the suburbs of Cupertino.

So you’re right, folks living outside of metropolitan areas need to work on their insecurities and learn to be nicer to people that prioritize other things in life.

Insecurity?

More like well-justified feeling of intellectual superiority, of being able to afford 5000 sq ft home with few acres of land, and raise a family with 5 kids on a single income, and not having kids wade their way through poop and needles on the way to school, not having to smell urine and marijuana on the streets of neighborhood
