Cost of living in the US varies too much to give a definitive answer. In the Southeast, Midwest, and Mountain West, it's very cheap. Cost of living is closer to Eastern Europe than Western Europe.

I was able to buy a home and support my wife in school making 35k/year. I do a lot better than that now of course.

Was that like a long time ago and house prices have went up significantly then? Or are houses in the US just that cheap? :O

I'm from the Detroit area, and over there people were selling houses for $1! Of course, there were hidden costs underneath it that made it so that nobody wanted to buy it for even that price!
