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.

The rate of increase is mind blowing. I used to rent a 1br luxury apartment for $1100 back in 2016.

We rented a sizable 2-bedroom apartment in a good area of North Hollywood, CA's arts district for $1200 a month 10 years ago. I don't even want to know how much it's going for now.

About 15 years ago, we had 1200 sq ft apartment with a nice deck that overlooked some woods and ponds at the bottom of the hill. It was $800 a month and we afforded it just fine. Now, I make almost double what I made then, and we live in a 900 sq ft apartment that stares down into a parking lot, has creaky floors, barely functioning appliances, and we pay $2000. The old apartment was $5.2k a month last time I checked (early 2022).
