It is a quandary! We moved from Colorado with a good pay increase for both my wife and I only to see that disappear because rent is twice what we paid in Colorado, utilities cost more as well. Looked into buying a house but prices for a nice property are through the roof. We have seen prices come down a bit but interest rates make it impossible.

Colorado will be back in our future!

They're trying to force the driver in front of them to go faster. The idea is to make them so uncomfortable that they either speed up just to get some tail room or move a lane to the right to get out of the way.

Mind you, slow driving in the fast lane is its own faux pas, but I don't find that to be a problem nearly as often as tailgaters do.

We can build the homes we need without high rises. We can build the homes we need without giant box apartment buildings. Has anyone ever walked around the South End with the brick row homes, or the upper west side in manhattan, and thought it was ugly?

People fetishize neighborhoods like that, but they are illegal. Illegal, illegal, illegal.
