... for smaller, cheaper housing. This snippet doesn't say if the kids are doubling or tripling up in their bedrooms, but they should be able to do that without trauma. I shared a bedroom my whole life until I moved out of home -- and then of course I had roommates.

I do agree that living at home while in college can certainly save a ton of money in a thrifty family, but for the life of me I can't see moving the entire family to another state.

Best of luck to them, though.
