In Norco, La alone there are 3 oil refineries, 2 chemical plants(one of them makes the household weed killer, Round-up) and a grain elevator... so you are looking at hundreds of workers all needing places to stay.

You didn't explain that his nephew was living there and had established a household and life there.

Neighborhoods will have certain mean and median household gross incomes.

One thing they're leaving out is a simple law of economics - supply and demand.The fact is that there are new households forming every year.There have been no new houses built in the last 6 years and the pace of building today is at near-historical lows - and definitely not enough to keep up with the number of households being created that need homes.And then add to that the fact that there are a lot of people still under water on their mortgages that can't sell and it should come as no surprise that there currently is less supply than there is demand right now.

There are tons of market distortions that have caused untold pains across many households for over 3 years now because of government screwups.

The number of foreclosures was down 0.5 percent from December and down 12 percent from a year earlier, when the foreclosure storm was raging.Ohio’s foreclosure rate was above the U.S. average and 10th highest in the nation last month, but the state was one of 15 to see drops in foreclosure filings.“The extensive foreclosure efforts on the part of lenders and government agencies appear to have impacted the January numbers – particularly the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac moratorium on all foreclosure sales that was extended through the end of January,†RealtyTrac CEO James Saccacio said in a release.Around the nation, RealtyTrac recorded 275,399 filings, which equates to one for every 466 households.

Consider the following statistics:- Average number of people in american household: 2.6- Confidence level that there is a household with 2.6 people living in it: 0%

This represents the amount the company will pay if your belongings are lost or damaged while in its care.Interstate movers are required to offer two types of valuation coverage, Full Value Protection and Released Value Protection.It’s important to understand the difference between the two and you’ll find an explanation on the FMCSA’s website.Check your homeowners insurance policy to determine if your household items are protected under it during a move.If not, you may want to look into purchasing third-party liability insurance, especially if you’ll be moving high-value items.3.

@Max Householder thanks @JP P.

I realize the job market and demand is strong here in DFW but I'm concerned things may be overheated considering  property prices have increased by over 60% in the last 5 years or so yet median household wages in the area have pretty much stayed flat...it leads me to wonder how that's a sustainable trend once relocations taper off.
