The reason behind this is clear to me, however if you had a cheap housing, you still have less money in the pocket. It also affects your "credit rating" (is this the right word for it?) when you earn less. Same with your pension level.

Not to be talking about the fuzz people have where the partner/kids are bound to the city.
