I’m from Yakima.. making 25$ an hour is kinda rare here unless you’ve been with 1 company for awhile & got some good raises. To me, being a visual therapist would be consider a badass job & one worth living comfortably. But to think, being a visual therapist & making 25$ an hour in Lynwood would only get someone a studio apartment and 300$ for food is actually kind of crazy.

I envy living in a nicer area, but don’t envy having a good job yet being towards the bottom of middle class society in your community.

I lived here for 30 years, and rents have sky rocketed. But I believe you can make it there are many places that are affordable in your situation. Share a rental, buy a travel trailer,motorhome, and rent a space. There are nice rv parks in the area. Lakeside rv isn't bad You can rent in everett and commute to Lynnwood in everett places can be affordable when available my kid rents a place 1/1 gated community 2 parking spaces for $1500 my brother rented a place only 300 sq ft lol but it is under $1000

not the person you responded to but i also make $24/hour. i live with two other people in a rented house in kitsap county. i have to chose one of the most expensive insurance plans offered by my employer due to chronic disease. i’ve always been frugal and environmentally conscious, so i shop a lot at grocery outlet and goodwill. i would say i live comfortably, although i wouldn’t be able to live as i am without having roommates (or a steep discount on pet care).
