Moving out from my parents in about two weeks.  I am 23 6'1"  190 pounds.  I know I do not want latex.  Any suggestions/ideas on a mattress I can get for around $500.00.  Moving from Buffalo, NY to Apex, NC because of work.

Anything more than one inch of memory foam bothers my back and, so depending on your budget, you may want to consider latex toppers soft toppers.  They are more expensive but will last for a long time.  Sleeps Like a Bear has about every ILD range you could ask for and their 14 ILD is soft but provides some support.  You could get a soft 22-24 ILD topper from Sleepez or other places if you want something a little less soft....but still soft (and cheaper than SLAB).  There are some cheaper places but IMHO the best latex comes from Latex International.  I've purchased from Sleepez and SLAB and they were great and had little to no odor.   If you go with latex, you may want to build one inch at a time to keep the cost down.  I'm sure others with memory foam toppers will have some suggestions too.
