Okay, so you want to move out. In most markets you will need to be able to pay three month’s rent up front: one for the first month’s rent, one for the last month’s rent (so you don’t pay it when you move out), and one as a security deposit. Many landlords also want to see that you are making 3x the monthly rent in a month of work, so you may need to show pay stubs that prove that, or a bank account statement with at least 3-6 months saved up. So your next step is to find out the going rate for either studio apartments for yourself only, or a shared apartment or house with roommates.

You also wish to check out r/Adulting or r/internetparents for more support along these lines, especially if you don’t want to get more nitty gritty into the exact dollar and cents amounts, since this sub usually wants that.
