I guess it depends on your lifestyle. According to https://www.adp.com/resources/tools/calculators/salary-paycheck-calculator.aspx that will be about 3300 after taxes per month, less if money is taken out for health insurance/retirement. From what I see on Zillow you'd spend about 1500 on a 1 bedroom apartment, another 200 on electricity, then car payments and insurance (400????), cell phone (50??), and you'd have about 1150 left for food/clothes/stuff/fun/savings per month.

Can it be done? Absolutely! Will it be easy and relaxed? Not so sure...

He said he had no other big bills so safe to assume no car payment, probably just insurance or maybe he uses public transit now?

My car is paid off so just a couple of hundreds for insurance and phone bill.

Expect your car insurance to increase. Not sure about living in Pawtucket, but when I moved, my insurance went up over $100/month.
