[@valerieshook1549]

Landlord is greedy.

[@WanderingExistence]

You joke but that's literally how it is.... Like Adam Smith literally described landlords will raise the rent to whatever price people can pay. Adam Smith talked about farmers because it was 1776, but you get the point. "The rent of land, therefore, considered as the price paid for the use of the land, is naturally a monopoly price. It is not at all proportioned to what the landlord may have laid out upon the improvement of the land, or to what he can afford to take; but to what the farmer can afford to give." - Adam Smith, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, Book I, Chapter XI "Of the Rent of Land" P.S. The solution to this is called a land value tax or a community land trust

And listen the size of an apartment isn't great for 1100 here but you can get a roommate too and you'd be in a 1000 square feet plus house and prob pay around 800 each. Or get 5 times the Sq feet for 1100. So yeh I'd deff say it's worth For job availability he looks healthy their's plenty here labor and non. Also I'm sure he could save up the money too if you really wanted to move hustle get another part time job The pay off just seems so worth it from living I'm a shoe box to living like a human bieng.
