My wife said the same. I told her, "Three words: Sweet Home Alabama".

“$2300 a month, for a single bedroom?”

My sister got married in upstate NY in 1969.

She and her husband were looking for a one-bedroom apartment. I remember $190/month as a typical amount.

Adjusted for inflation, that $190/month would be $1900/month.

NYC was always more expensive than upstate.

In the Northern Virginia area, rents circa 1992 were about $600/month. That would be about $2000/month adjusted for inflation.
