Well no shit!
States that have rich people will have a higher average. But there are also plenty of cheap 2-bedroom apartments too!
Why don't you compare the MINIMUM available 2-bedroom price with the MINIMUM wage? Then you can see if our poor can afford to live.
- mason240 11y agoI swear I have been seeing this average/minimum bait-and-switch everyday for the last 3 weeks now. I don't know how something so false is having such momentum.
- s73v3r 11y agoBecause poor people have to compete inn the greater rental market like the rest of us. And there aren't as many of the minimum rental units as are needed.
