Or, for those of us that hate cities, buy a house for next to nothing further 
out, and work on the edges of the metro area.  It's an interesting, if 
unpopular idea.... lower costs are less demanding on salary, and that gives 
the flexibility to live where you want to live, rather than where you think 
you have to work.  The commutes are longer, but I drive 30 miles to KSU and 
that takes 45 minutes.  We used to live in Kennesaw, and 3 miles took 45 
minutes.  I'll trade the $$$ for lower blood pressure any day!

Of course Bop, the groceries might not be as fresh out here.  ;-)
