$900 take home a week (Orlando: mortgage, credit, apartments)

[newyorktoflorida]

After taxes my wife and I will take home about 900-950 a week. Is that anough to live on in Orlando or will we struggle big time? I have 2 cars(no car payment) no kids. Any thoughts?

Sounds good to me. My husband and I make a bit more but we have a mortgage and two car payments and oh, yeah 3 kids I would suggest renting and saving money a few years to buy a home. Good luck!

If you're renting with no kids, you'll be fine. There's a ton of vacancy in apartments and homes, so you could easily rent for under $1000/mo.

With no kids or car payment you should be fine.

We make a little less and get by. We have 2 kids and a mortgage. Although, we do have some credit card bills which I prefer not to have. It's doable.
