    It’s all averages and statistics can always be spun however you want, but hopefully there’s some truth to it. I don’t even know what “household income” is limited to. If more people are moving in as roommates, for example, that’s not a good thing, but does it raise the household average? I’m too lazy to look it up haha.

      I mean im single income to so you know double income if one had lost a job for awhile and got it back. I could see that but as someone who has been (thankfully) steadily working. I don’t see it. Don’t get me wrong I recognize the interest rate changes since 2010 and what caused the inflation.
