Got an offer of 80K/year from a company in Garnet Valley, PA.

I am single with two teenagers.

Is this salary good enough to cover 3br rental, insurance, and the costs for other daily consumptions?

Any comments are welcomed. Thanks.

Where do you live now? Are you already in the Philly area, so wouldn't need to move?

Working in Garnet Valley is one thing. But, where do you want to live?

-- How much of a commute are you willing to do?
-- What other expenses do you know you have?
-- After that, how much rent can you afford?

Heck where do you work...I'd love to make that. You can certainly survive on that around there as well as Delaware,which has less taxes etc.
