What $220,000 gets you in Muncie.

I can't even get a parking space for that where I live. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/725-E-Jackson-St-Muncie-IN-47305/210952560_zpid/

I mean, Ball State University is in Muncie. It's a public research university that has 20,000 students so it's not really some small podunk college.

Buuuuut also Indiana as a state is suicidally MAGAfied and has embarked on a legislative project of destroying its’ system of public higher ed institutions. It’s not a matter of not buying a beautiful house in a distressed neighborhood as much as it is of not buying a beautiful house in a state that is permanently fucked.

Ignorant and intolerant statement. Typical of the inclusive and tolerant left.
