My mom is giving me until June to move out. This will not be my first time living outside my parents house, but it will be my first time living alone.

I have about $5,000 saved. I’m looking at an apt. that’s $669/month with gas and water included. I own my car and work full time with a pay of $18/hour. My monthly expenses add up to be about $130/month not including groceries and personal care items. I am not currently paying for my phone bill, but I will be soon. Do I have enough money saved? I think I will be ok, I’m just a bit anxious about the whole situation. My mother is not the easiest person to live with, so I am actually excited to move out. Any tips or advice is welcomed as well! :)
