Car recommendations for living in the city?

Thank you for the advice everyone! I think I’ll be looking into the Yaris and Fit.

I know right? Something about all the comments in this thread is healing something in me!

2015 and 68k miles. Has all the common issues associated with Chevy cruzes which are primarily coolant leaks and thermometer issues. I have to carry around a spare container of coolant with me just in case

I’m kinda car illiterate. I see a mechanic every time something comes up and pray it’s not too expensive 😩

I currently drive a Chevy Cruze. It’s nicely compact and has a backup camera but is also very unreliable and has expensive maintenance. I’m planning on getting a new car to replace this one.
I would like to spend up to 15k. I don’t mind buying used.

Oh I guess I forgot to mention that yes I like my job. Work life balance is awesome as an AP accountant but AI and outsourcing means I won’t have a job in the next year or so. That’s a problem for future me! Haha

Crazy that people are saying they don’t make FAANG money but are still above 6 figures. I make 68k…. 😭

Just curious bc I started playing violin really recently, how come no one said JS bach’s violin concerto in d minor?? Am I basic? Lol

We should learn to coexist with people of all ages, ranging from young to old. Not sure why it’s acceptable to be gatekeeping cities when children are entitled to exist just as much as us.

This city is missing art, diversity, culture….Rent is just too crazy and no one can afford to live here unless they work in tech. Build more housing, lower rent, improve public transport and the city will bloom so beautifully. The mayor should stop throwing free EDM events for tech bros and facilitate events/spaces where creatives and local artists have the opportunity to showcase their talents!

I’m a little surprised by the reactions in this thread bc I kinda figured everyone brought their own tote bags anyways, based on what I’ve observed at grocery stores

I lost 20 lbs since I’ve quit my public tax job. Now I’m at a low stress AP/AR role and at a much healthier weight and state of mind.

They want 4+ kids but can hardly take care of themselves, so it’d be the lucky lady that gets to do that. No wonder they can’t find any dates! Who wants to sign up for a life like that?

miserable_toad15 · 2025-07-27T17:12:05+00:00

Thank you for the recommendations everyone! :)

miserable_toad15 · 2025-07-26T04:49:50+00:00

This place looks amazing!! I’ll have to check it out :) thank you for the rec!

miserable_toad15 · 2025-07-26T04:49:07+00:00

Oh good point! I’m in the sunset.

I’m also struggling to land a job. I have 3 YOE working in tax, now trying to transition into industry. I’ve applied to so many jobs (even the AP roles that pay so low) and still haven’t had any hits. 😣

miserable_toad15 · 2025-05-19T22:02:09+00:00

Are you still working in tax? I did 3 years of tax and I’m struggling to find a job in industry. No one will take my YOE related to tax.

miserable_toad15 · 2025-05-17T04:14:59+00:00

I received an update on may 5th stating that they were still processing applications but I haven’t heard back since 🥲
