OP you're pigeonholing yourself by following a "rule" you decided you must follow. With this rule in mind, your options are to either buy a smaller home, one in a less desirable neighborhood or one that requires a longer distance commute. Or you can continue to rent. There is nothing wrong with renting forever. 1 in 3 people never own a home.
As a random data point, if we followed the same rule you're following we would have never been able to purchase our home. We bought our first home in the 90s and we had to make very significant sacrifices in order to do so. Far more sacrifices than you're willing to make today.
