Ah yea, it looks like that's true. I didn't calculate the actual percentages, but it was very low. Thanks for the heads up - > Demand for housing also remains heavy because Soviet rents, heavily subsidized by the Government, are very low. A modest two‐room apartment will en for 6 to 8 rubles ($8 to $11.30) a month, including some utilities. A four‐room apartment wil rent for 14 to 16 rubles ($18.20 to $22.30). Apartments in more modern buildings cost more because of additional services. https://www.nytimes.com/1974/11/11/archives/in-soviet-ingenuity-is-needed-to-find-an-apartment-in-soviet.html?smid=url-share https://www.nytimes.com/1974/11/11/archives/in-soviet-ingenu...
