Why would a minimum wage worker be trying to buy a 2-bedroom home? Edit: Meant to say rent instead of buy

  They aren't. The article is about renting a 2-bedroom home. And nowhere do they limit the definition of "home" to "free standing, detached dwelling" - I believe their figures include 2-bedroom apartments as well.

    Apologies- I meant to write rent. Even if their numbers include 2 BR apts, my point still stands: a single person affording rent for a 2 BR apt is not a reasonable baseline for a living wage.

      It's not, but what's your argument for why it shouldn't be?
