Dream home slips through our fingers. Sad. :(
So, we decided we don't want to live in the suburbs.... which is why we missed out on this super awesome house at a super awesome price. Chad happened to drive by it, and by the time we checked on it.. the sale was pending. Sold in foreclosure for $315,000!!! INCREDIBLE! Now, we are sad. :(

Guess why: More married women work in Minneapolis than in NYC
New study shows: Commuting = wasted time.
From The Harris School at the University of Chicago
In Minneapolis, 79 percent of married women are employed, while only 49 percent are in New York.
Why, you ask?
"Black examined a variety of factors—local housing prices, child care costs, and local unemployment rates—but one stood out: commute times in metropolitan areas."
"The authors predicted, and confirmed, that cities with longer commutes are associated with fewer married women who work."
"A one-minute increase in a daily commute is coupled with a 0.66 percent decrease in the likelihood of employment. "
Smart women know -- commuting = wasted time!
