In Utah County the cheapest "House" for sale is 600 square feet, 2 bed, 1 bath, at $300k.

So at current interest rate it would be $1,800 a month mortgage(assuming you put the 60k down payment! A decent amount more if you do 3% down.)

The cheapest condo/town in utah valley is 205k, 1,100 square feet, on a 400 square foot lot. But due to a $500 HOA fee the monthly cost is still 1,700 a month (assuming 20% down).

With 3.5% down they'd both be closer to 2.1k +PIMI.

So yeah, how is where you live doing?

600 squared freedoms are 55 communists squared, in case anyone else from the civilised world was wondering. So not very big.

I have yet to meet a square communist!

Wow. To be fair, most of the communists I know are less handsome than that. They look like maybe... somewhat better than average middle-aged people? They also only occasionally stare off to the horizon, far ahead and slightly to the left, with appropriate literature held tightly against their chests :P

I like that black shirt, I'd buy that in a second. We get some really nice propaganda posters here, but often the message is less dramatic than the artwork. Usually it's stuff like 'don't drink and drive', 'try to eat less salt', and 'spitting in public is gross, stop doing it please'. Once I could read them, I discovered most of them were... surprisingly wholesome :D
