This Cardboard Box Is Your New Home

This Cardboard Box Is Your New Home I just moved from the city that, according to a recent study, boasts the highest rent in the country. And this week, I found myself apartment hunting in my new city, which is the #1 most expensive city to live in overall. I sure know how to pick 'em!
