Re: How much would this property cost in various parts of the U.S
The cheapest will be Chicago, but you'll get mugged as the school is near a roughish area. Boston and San Fran are ludicrous. Try this: bend over and touch your toes. If no wads of bills fell out of your ass, you are not rich enough to be a full-time student and also buy a house in these areas. You'll have to rent.
Also, are you planning on owning this place for the duration of your PhD studies, then selling it? My feeling is you could take a big loss on that, the housing bubble in this country is ridiculous right now.
