Thanks for the tip on the area. Not surprising that it would be seeing climbing costs; that's all too common these days. Increasing cost is a pretty significant problem all around. I'm in the Seattle area, and the skyrocketing housing costs thanks in large part to Amazon's insatiable growth have pushed me out of the city into a much less accessible area.

My logistical disability is a visual impairment, so while I'm able to walk, there's relatively little to walk to in the area other than suburban sprawl. Unfortunately, operating any kind of motor vehicle is right out, and while it would be legal for me to bike around, I'm not confident that it would be safe given my poor vision, particularly in any kind of traffic.
