Hey @Kyle Bray! I help a lot of house hackers and this is a common question, usually centered around the absolute best ROI and going purely off numbers.

My question back to you is where do YOU want to live? If you have the opportunity to house hack anywhere, I would pick the place where your lifestyle isn't compromised because no investment is worth hating where you live.

With that being said, a general rule is that after 600k median price market then it gets a lot harder (not impossible) to house hack. So I'd stay away from the top end of expensive cities (LA, NYC, San Fran, ect).
