Wow, Seattle actually doesn't seem that much more expensive compared to the $1,263 average 1br in Dallas. But SF... Holy shit. And I'm actually seeing $2,965 on Rent Jungle for SF right now.

The crazy thing is that it will be very hard to find a decent 1 bedroom for even that price, realistically you are looking at $3.5k to $4k.

That's only true if you need to live in new construction. My previous apartment was an old crappy 2BR on Capitol Hill, with Cascade views, from 2012-2014, for $1500. Currently I'm paying $2200 for a 2BR house with a nice yard in the Central District.

If anyone wants to rent a nice 3BR house north of the UW for $3-4K, email me, I know of one for rent.
