This was true when my wife and I got married. We were paying ~$600 per month for a part of a farmhouse on 200 secluded acres. We now own albeit, a larger home on 11 acres surrounded by neighbors paying approximately $1700 per month (all costs included). Plus I didn't have to pay or do repairs.
Thanks for the anecdote. Having said that, I envy your house on 11 acres for only $1700 a month!!!
