I literally pay $100 more to live in a much shittier garage than this…
Rent is getting absolutely disgusting. I was JUST getting a promotion that would allow me to afford a house and then COVID fucked literally everything… The WFH movement started in full swing and bye bye affordable housing… Now I’m permanently locked out of the housing market as a blue collar piece of shit.
It’s so gross that we literally need 2 incomes, sometimes more just to afford a place to sleep… I’m perpetually single so I need to do it all solo. Good luck I hope you guys find something soon!
In Switzerland I could kill someone and have a better living arrangement than in this picture (look up swiss prisons)
I pay 1k for roughly 740 square feet / 69 m2. Covid didn’t change anything. It’s wild that things can be so vastly different for two similary rich countries (I kinda assume the post is in the USA).
I’m confused. The WFH movement should be flushing people AWAY from city centers, which should mean less pressure in already expensive areas. That’s something that should make affordable housing more common.
Those people go move to the small towns with limited housing, and jack up the prices there. Happened in Ontario, houses are passing a million dollars over an hour away from Toronto, when those houses used to go in the low hundred thousands.
It’s the opposite for everyone who doesn’t live in a city. Long Island NY is already expensive on a regular day, all the people leaving NYC for the suburbs drove prices through the roof. It’s a similar story in places outside of cities all over the country.

The rate of increase is mind blowing. I used to rent a 1br luxury apartment for $1100 back in 2016.
Good thing wages are also inflating to keep up with these ridiculous price increases. Oh, wait…
Man my fucking mortgage is only a couple hundred higher
Same here, me and my GF make enough money now to afford housing 3 years ago, but now we’re priced out of even renting! it’s bullshit.

Gas station attendants could afford houses while their wives stayed at home and did the housework. That’s how ridiculous it’s gotten.
With kids!
