Reply to comment by HomicidalHushPuppy in Looking to move to PA from AZ. Need recommendations by CalypsoRaine

Oh geez 🙄 Google does work. We are paying 2k for rent. Other areas in AZ are 2500 to 4k. Hell, I saw 6k in a city thats expensive here. Rent goes up here about 600 to 800 dollars which is insane.

Forgot to mention we are bringing 2 cats with us

Youre quite snarky for someone asking for help and advice. If google works for figuring out Arizona rents, then google also works for finding rental agencies in Pennsylvania.

Well, not trying to be but you guys live there and I'm just trying to get some help. We have never lived in PA, but I don't like when people gatekeep and won't provide info when it's being asked.

You live in Arizona and have easy info to provide?!

It's not gatekeeping to ask what your baseline idea of "high rent" is. Pennsylvania is a BIG state with a large swing in rents between Philly and Pittsburgh.

What i mean by gatekeeping is how people won't provide info like what realtors they use and be like "hey I have used xyz agent or agency here's the info it might help you." I'm not trying to argue.

Sorry if I was an ass, but it's been kinda stressful.

People were asking for more information on order to help give you a better answer though.

Because if $1000 is high to you, there's not much we can do. But if you think $3000 is not high, then we can give you an answer.

You were an ass and your expectations are unrealistic. That's a bad combination.

I did apologize. What was unrealistic? We are trying to find affordable rent since it keeps rising in AZ. All I'm asking is if there's a rental agency in PA who helps ppl find a place like what we have in AZ.

Anyways, rents in my suburban Philly town go from 1500-3600 depending on if its a studio or a 3 bedroom.

At least where I live, $1400 will get you a new-ish 2 bed apartment. There's nicely-updated split-level 3-bed/2-bath house for rent in my neighborhood for $2500.
