I never used being female as an excuse... It's more being a single person. In kelowna there are very few 1 bdrm places available. A ton of people will buy a home and rent out as many rooms as they can.

Also, when mental health is involved, moving away from support is a big deal. I explained it in a different reply, and I can't speak for my friend but I've tried moving and my mental health suffers. I've invested a lot to be well and able to work a well paying job. I can afford my own place, but my friend has had a really hard time. And she has other barriers I just can't publicly say.

So yes, there totally are out of town options but it's just not an option.
