I have no idea what hotel staff in this town make, but my guess it would all come pretty close to evening out in the end. $500 rent? If you don't want to live in an unheated garage, you aren't going to find that here. I did some serious research (I googled Tuscaloosa real estate) and a nice looking two bedroom 1300 s.f. house was on sale for 136 grand. An equivalent house could be triple that here, if not more.

If a guy can live on the cheap, that's a good thing, not a bad thing.
Yeah, IIRC PMKing posted some pictures of his yard and it is big with some trees and a nice lawn. I doubt you could find a place like that in Calgary.
