So what is the income cut off ( minimum) excluding (health set backs) with marginal insurance, car/gas, utilities ,food , clothes, entertainment ,school, church 10% to mention a few before you even set foot into Hendersonville ? 38k! Rated among the highest cost cities not only in the U.S. ,but the world!! There Is an old money engine combined with tourist and some new money sources that drive the cost especially of shelter (housing/rentals) out of the universe. The properties, homes for sale are inflated by 45% simply on suggestion, arbitrary decisions greed and in the last four years 40% of properties are still for sale !!! Nobody gets the message as the engine of greed, insane expectations, real estate cookie monsters frothing over potential unrealistic commissions ,banks that are as bourgioisie as the rich and a city full of poorly nutritioned, overweight, penniless service people struggling to live another day in paradise!.Soon the economy will beat down the engines of manufactured and real affluencia. Then we will find a affordable home and if not expand the Rescue Mission!!! It may beat attempting to survive in a nearly condemed black mold ridden junk trailer down a dirt road as one serves money bags. Jobs? Please. We alwaywanted to live in Hendersonville ,but it has become unaffordable , yet I spent 7k to move in April. We love the city and locals as somewhat a contradiction.

If you believe that Hendersonville reflects all the negatives listed in your post, then why in heck do you aspire to live there?

Is there some source for your data?
According to this site ( Family Budget Calculator | Economic Policy Institute), the annual cost for a single person to live in Hendersonville is $29,438. And according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average hourly wage in Henderson County is $18.62, which equates to $38,729.60 per year. Seems affordable to me.
Your claim that H'ville is among the highest cost cities in the world is as preposterous as many of your other posts. Do you just enjoy engaging in wild hyperbole for the sake of getting attention?

Not that I know of, and I've lived in Henderson County for several years !
Maybe income of retirees living on annuities and investments. LOL ! Certainly not working folks.
Google must be your best friend -- "EPI" is a non-profit think tank, which has nothing to do with accurate research relative to Hendersonville NC. From the EPI website, for readers of this thread, here is the EPI 'expertise':
"EPI is an independent, nonprofit think tank that researches the impact of economic trends and policies on working people in the United States. EPI’s research helps policymakers, opinion leaders, advocates, journalists, and the public understand the bread-and-butter issues affecting ordinary Americans."

No, only includes people working, doesn't include retirees.

So? You'd prefer they were funded by the government or the Koch Brothers?
Feel free to provide other data, if you have any. Otherwise, your "opinions" are not worth much.
