Your math ain't mathing. What do you think this is? 2019 or something?

Now, Americans must earn roughly $106,500 in order to comfortably afford a typical home, a significant increase from the $59,000 annual household income that put homeownership within reach for families in 2020, according to new research from digital real estate company Zillow.

That's kind of my point. You COULD make it work if the salary is what OP mentioned, but that doesn't mean it will be glamorous. It's a crappy catch-22 that for most good paying jobs you have to live in an area with a higher cost of living making that good salary less.

Very lucky my wife has a good paying job that is fully WFH and we have a solid childcare situation. We could make life work on just one of our salaries, but it would suck.
