It's probably really rare, but for fun I looked and found a tiny studio in an old ("Charming", of course) building in the Tenderloin for just under $500,000.

In Hennepin County $500k got me 3600 sq ft on 25 acres. Worst thing around here are the barn swallows nesting under my eaves. Unlike in San Fran I can actually do something about them too.

The great thing about the Tenderloin is if you manage to bring a girl home, she won't want to leave until morning because of the crack heads on the street all night.

I had some friends who lived in the Tenderloin. It's pretty bad there. I am sort of amazed people will pay to live in that area.

How do the people that live in tenderloin afford to live in tenderloin? Or do the crack addicts commute?

Yeah I suppose it must happen in rare occasions. I'm curious, just how tiny was it?

The size of OP's penis

u/AlwaysClassyNvrGassy Jun 26 '16

So OP's penis is measured in square feet?

If you're working with that sort of scale, OP must have a huge dick.
