the cost of living

[topaz]

As I fill out mortgage applications for moving in to Mosaic Commons I can't help but do the math and see that the cost of our mortgage, condo fees, and property taxes adds up to about 40% of my net take-home pay, without even taking heating costs into account. This seems really high to me but maybe I don't have much to compare it to.

Ours is definitely on the high end, especially now that prosicated is not working. Possibly over 60% now actually.
