<prompt> Human: Hey everyone. I enjoy reading these posts, but decided it is time to get advice from others.I am 22 and just graduating college. I am blessed to not graduate with any student loans. Only debt I have is a car loan that I have roughly 12K left to pay 360month. I have secured a job 65K salary and I live in Texas so there is no state income tax and have been apartment hunting. I have a place picked out and know it is expensive, but want to know if I am stretching myself too thin.The apartment I am looking at it located in downtown Dallas. Rent is 1365. Other fees associated with the apartment total 113. It is in a commercial high-rise on the 21st floor, so waterelectric are calculated using commercial rates. I have been told they are significantly cheaper than residential rates. It does include a WasherDryer in the unit. It is also a brand new building, so I will be the first person living in the unit.I am a simple guy and dont enjoy going out a whole lot. I am more of a homebody, so my socialgoing out expense is much less then others. The apartment is a 5 minute walk to where I will be working, so my transportation expense is 0. I used a spreadsheet a fellow redditor posted while apartment hunting, and it seemed to me that even though this one has the highest rent, it was one of the cheaper options after I calculated the cost of buying a washerdryer, transportation to work, and parking at work my building charges 140month for parking. Thank you for any and all input!!TL;DR 65K salary, 1365 in rent plus 113month in apartment fees not including utilities. No student loans, but 12K car loan. Living in Texas, so no state income tax.Assistant: Saving you not only money but time on commuting, that is a big benefit.I dont know the rental rate for the area, so really cant comment on if this is a fair price, but it looks like you can afford it given your low expenses. It doesnt leave you a ton of wiggle room, but assuming you spend 2,000 for rent, utilities and car payments, you should still have 1500 to 2000 available for saving and other expenses.Human: I am definitely accounting for my commute, which is why I am looking at a little more expensive of place. Similar places in the area go for 1200-1400. This is the only place I saw that included a washerdryer in the unit, and utilities are charged at commercial rates. After factoring in those costs, this place was maybe 150 more.  <response>: Washer and dryer, too. Yah, go for it.
