Yeah I was looking at rent prices for the same period of 2019 to 2023 to see what the increase was and it isn't pretty. Funniest part is the places that saw actual decreases correlate to areas that are overrun with crime and have businesses pulling out creating food deserts and strips of abandoned retail space. So a city like Portland is seeing a decline because who wants to get firebombed lol while other metro areas shoot upwards. Unless you wanna move to smalltowns in low density states rental prices are out of control right alongside mortgages.
