I recently moved from the state of Illinois (3hrs away) I came to visit my cousin in Indianapolis and I ended up finding a job in Anderson IN. The cost of living out here is so much cheaper. I have a clean rental history in Illinois. I lost my job so I couldnt afford my apartment anymore. Fortunately my lease was almost over and I was ahead on my rent. I never had a roomate before because I was always independant. However, I could could really save on the gas. And learn more about the city.
