I tried moving out once when I was 18, and that lasted about 5 months. I was making $6.25/hr and working 20 Hours a week back then.
I fail to see how anyone was ever able to move out of their parents house before they turned 21. Both of my Parents moved out of their Parents house when they were 18.
In San Diego, thats not happening. Rent for my 3 BR, 1200 SQ FT house is $1700...I couldn't even dream of that if I was 18.

If you didn't have the option of staying at home you would do what you had to do. At 16 I signed a lease using my brother as a cosigner on an apartment that was over these peoples garage. I had one room and a shitter and paid all my own utilities. I worked two jobs and never, ever could afford to go out but I did it any way.
