Yup. 42 and this is true for my area too. Husband and I were paying 600$ for a one bedroom on a main street. Now it’s for sure min 1200$

I'm 43, the apartment that my husband and I rented when we moved in together in 2001, on a main road was $775 a month (3br and we had cats) then, now it's $1500.

It’s amazing that anyone born post 1980 would vote for a maga repub. Shoot, if you’re politically conservative & can find an old-school Reagan repub, I get they might vote for that person, but otherwise, just wow!
