What static US locations are "the people you know" living in?
OFC you can get cheaper rent moving to more remote and primitive housing, but that's a misrepresentation anyway.
From California, to Seattle, to the midwest, all rents have increased at least every other year. Your statement is literally unbelievable.
- orhmeh09 5y agoMine in Seattle has not, even if I believe you in the general sense. I think my landlord valued having a renter with stable income from one of their former employers, so that might explain the lack of an increase.
- Supermancho 5y agoAnd most people you know? It's exceedingly unusual for someone to drop rent. This is what rental/lease agreements stabilize. If you move or that there might be windfalls from some specific situations, is not the norm. https://www.zumper.com/rent-research/seattle-wa https://www.zumper.com/rent-research/seattle-wa https://www.seattletimes.com/business/real-estate/in-seattle-pandemic-recovery-brings-another-reality-the-rent-is-going-up/ https://www.seattletimes.com/business/real-estate/in-seattle...
- whimsicalism 5y agoI just told my landlord I was going to move if they didn't drop rent by a few hundred and they did.
