These numbers are in the ballpark, but the tweaks I'd make are not in the OP's favor. I don't think you're going to be able to find a 900K townhome in a good school district here unless you mean a 1 bedroom or studio. A year ago I was looking at the market and a 2 bedroom in a good school district was 950K but that was a 40-year-old building. HOA around $300.

Note to OP at the prices divyekapoor mentioned for rentals, you likely won't be in a house in a good school district, you'll be in an apartment. Or in a house or apartment in a bad school district. Alarmingly, even the options that you can't afford will still seem not good enough. Depressing, I know. If your Priuses are the plug-in type and you want to take advantage of that, your selection is further narrowed.

Other than that I agree with the above.. my comments are just tweaks.
