Owning a home has rarely been this much more expensive than renting - eviltoast
The premium for homeownership has grown in recent years as home insurance, upkeep, and high mortgage rates skew the buying vs. renting math.

    Yeah I feel like Joplin proved that all wrong too.

    Was the idea that tall buildings might break up wind shear that would feed the tornado?

      I think so. When i lived in the foothills of the Smokey Mountains, common wisom was that we didn’t have to worry about tornados because of all the hills, which is basically the same idea. Then we had one touch down anyway. I think tornadoes just don’t care anymore, almost like they’re more energetic for some reason… like the climate has changed somehow…
