I live in rural BFE utah, (Cedar City, 45 minutes east of St George). Average home prices here have gone from 200k to 400k in 3 years. I'm a freelance dev, earn maybe 80k, but that fluctuates a lot, and 400k is a tough number to swallow when it was 200k a few years back, I keep hoping it'll go back to those days, but I doubt it will.
