- tempsy 4y agoso rent is now considered a massive burden on everyone because someone making the minimum wage cannot easily afford the median rent in the city they live in? that’s not how it works at all

That means the rent is a massive burden on half of the locals at least, likely many more since the burden does not scale linearly. Second, check median wage and check the distribution of wages compared to house prices. We're talking how many millions of people here?
