Housing Bubble 2: Return of the Ugly

Depends. I think there's a lot context missing to make any good judgment. For the average of the whole state? Maybe. For what you need to be able to afford the minimum? No. $25 an hour is $50k gross a year. You can definitely get by with less if you're single, even around metro Atlanta. Toss in a kid and a spouse? That's probably about right. All it says is "household" though. Not an amount of people.

Move to some place more rural and you could probably get by with less.
