Since 2001, median rents have risen by 21 percent — while renters’ incomes have only increased by 2 percent.

    Hey genius, if everyone moved to your shitty little town the rents would be unaffordable there, too

      Everyone isn’t moving to my town, but if they did it would also be more attractive and create another place that people like you would like to live.

      The key is to spread out. Create more supply to satisfy demand.

      But you don’t want to do that because you feel entitled to live where you can’t afford.

        Yeah, we want to live where its desirable to live, not at even intervals across all the available land so you have to travel 90 miles to get groceries. Room temp IQ
