this always devolves into a "me vs them" type of argument (which is probably intended by our overlords).

clubs- ~24/25 , I live in a college town and felt out of place at that point.
bars (regularly) - ~27 , petered out as friendships dwindled and I got in a more serious LTR.

my parents bought their home in 1980 for $80,000. its like ~2500 sq ft, 4 bedrooms, basement, no garage, but nice sized back yard, safe & quiet neighborhood...
