I live in Houston, Texas. A mediocre apartment in my area is $1000-2000/month. Rent homes and even mortgages run in the same range in the mediocre neighborhoods. I've lived in an apartment making $12/hr with an ex making $8/hr and we had a son together, all without financial issues.
To me, it's not about how much money someone makes that places you in the world. It's about how well you can live within your means. I still don't make $20/hr yet, but I live better than a lot of people making even $35/hr.
