Bruh. This and the "springfield is the poorest city in missouri" are such bullshit studies. The reason for both is that we have a vast amount of students in springfield. Much higher than other places. Nearly 25% of springfields population is going to college right now.

Of course this is going to drag down the average income by a ton if a quarter of the population can only work half as many hours as everyone else, and college students are either living alone or with a roommate, not living living with a significant other.

Soon we are going to get studies like "springfield has the most mental illness in missouri" "springfield is the most physically active city" and "springfield has the most people living in flats with shared bathrooms"

The real ironic part is one half sees the other half being that way, the other half sees the first half being that way

Millionaire money might get you a lease to a small office in that building

Edit: It's actually significantly less than I thought. In 2019 you could sublease half a floor for around 30k a month

Have you ever been to sequoia park and enjoyed it? If the answer is yes, then vote no. It's not houses that are on the line, it's the park

There's ohana (cheap, not great but cheap)

Hinote(expensive, good sushi, mid hibachi)

And Nakato (expensive, but good)

Then there's a place literally called hibachi that I haven't been to but heard isn't great

One could call that row of chicken places a "chicken strip"
