What a weirdly worded statistic.

So this is the price tag on the cheapest home that has broken into the 99th percentile in value. It's not the most expensive home in the state but close to it. There are thousands of homes more expensive in each state, but I guess this gives a nice representative sample of a very expensive home without being a Micheal Jackson Neverland Ranch that blows the curve up.

And the millionaires avoid North Dakota. When you have money, you prefer to live in other states.

The real question is why do the millionaires also avoid Iowa? That's a bit of an anomaly with the other Midwest states around it.

Because driving across Iowa is bad enough.

A lot of the things in this thread made me pause, but this is a WTF.

Your food's roots. The whole chart was 22 inches wide so I broke it up below.

yourmechanic dot com a repair service, like the uber of car repair. So these results aren't accurate for anything but their customers, but might be a big enough sampling to be close.

My Toyota dealer is probably ripping me off. I doubt it'll take 10 years to get to $4300.

I took my cousin's car to the dealer two weeks ago before I sold it, and it was a shock. We never go to the dealer for our own car and take it to the corner mechanic instead. The dealer was impersonal, slow, difficult to communicate with, and fucking expensive. Also incredibly busy, and there was no place to park.

I had a good experience with my Honda dealer, plus they were across the street from a bookstore, so taking the car in for maintenance was almost a treat. So I got in the habit of using the dealer.

Now that I have the Prius, I may need to look into local mechanics eventually, but inertia is a major factor.
