This is happening everywhere. The rents no longer reflect the median income of the average working class American. I am camping out of a 30 year old travel trailer myself, in Tucson Arizona. And before you, the comfortable class, start accusing me of being a drug addict, unemployed or financially irresponsible, here are the facts: I’ve worked since 14 years old, veteran, 2 college degrees ( paid off my loans), 830 FICO score, excellent health, and I work 6 days a week with overtime. I did everything right and at 60 years old I don’t see a way out of this.

if you're a veteran you can go to your local VA and apply for a HUD-VASH voucher. Takes about 6 months but then you would only have to be 1/3 of your income to rent and the voucher would cover the rest

I’m in total support of people living in RVs. They aren’t hurting anyone. I’m more personally concerned about my rent going up in NJ due to the recent influx of NYC residents moving into my neighborhood. My neighborhood might look inexpensive compared to rent prices in NYC but as a longtime resident of NJ this is causing my rent to increase by over $500/month in the last 2 years alone (for reference I pay $3,500 for a 3 bedroom 2.5 bathroom condo and I have just been told that it will be increased by another $200/month). This problem has definitely expanded beyond the borders of NYC. I sincerely hope that something can be done to make housing not just more available but more affordable for us all.

I am all for it too. I am married and have 4 kids and a dog and a rv just wouldn’t have to space we would need. But if I was single I might consider it. We only pay 620 a month for rent but that only because we live in a mobile home park.

@juneallen4926, actually in some places the elderly, even with those so-called "discounts/assistance" are still paying upwards of $1,000/mo for an apartment and for some elderly folks, that's about all they receive in SS payments so unless they have pensions or other aid, they're really stuck. Just like some of the other users stated in this thread. My beloved Mother had worked since she was 16, non-stop. She became disabled in her latter years which was shortly before she'd retire. She only received ~$1,600 from SS but she also had pensions from the other jobs she worked over her lifetime so that helped her BUT her husband was also still working full time and paying on a mortgage. He was nearing 80 yrs old and became ill and passed away. I then took care of her the last 4 yrs of her life. It was just surprising to me that she received so little SS, that so many Seniors do.... To think that they've been taking that $$ from you for, 30, 40, 50+ yrs and then for maybe 10-20, they begin metering it out to you in small amounts, the only real huge expense is medical care which is due in part to the outrageous and out of control costs of "healthcare." I remember a lousy Doctor telling me when I was younger, that my bill would've been much higher IF I had insurance....

How is Nothing being done about it? It's not being talked about, it's not being addressed. This is the most crucial issue that needs to be addressed right now if we want to keep our society from collapsing. This obsession with achieving Perpetual growth is impossible. Yet our country acts like perpetual growth is a completely reasonable goal. There is no way anything can function like that. A huge majority of the population is struggling to even afford Rent.. All of this of course also affects small town businesses because the rent on these shops has increased too. Our country is pretty much requiring everyone to find ways to increase their income but our country isn't providing any options for a huge % of our population. Remember this is just so people could keep up with the increased cost of basic living. With the way our society is structured all of this is completely impossible. It's not possible for us to live in a system where everybody can be wealthy. So lots of store fronts are becoming vacant. Average people cannot afford basic rent. There is absolutely no help for our citizens who are now stuck in poverty.. (and worst of all, we have to wake up everyday and see that our country is completely ignoring that any of this is happening. The media just acts like none of this is going on.

@@therealhan21 yes there are many working people who can’t afford to move. They are already struggling with rent prices and can’t afford the cost of the typical 1st month +1-1.5 months security deposit on a new place to rent + moving costs. It doesn’t matter if the next place is cheaper or not especially if it’s a long distance (more expensive) move. There are also people on fixed incomes who are unable to work. As well as many people who are working that simply don’t have enough options for making a higher wage. If a higher wage was available to them I’m sure they have already taken it, or even a second and third job and still can’t afford the rising prices. The cost of housing is simply outpacing the wages right now. Inflation doesn’t help anything either. Everything has happened too quickly for most people to even contemplate planning for a move. There’s a reason for why that red wave.

New Yorker voted for that.

For many years.

[@vascamp4854]

How do you know? There's no voter ID there.

This is so messed up. This city will eventually disintegrate into chaos.

[@vrooooooooooooooooooom]

It’s only going to get worse. Unless you are tied to NYC by family, there is no reason to live there.

[@lisapolanski9379]

It's like this in Los Angeles too, for the past 10 years, even in West LA.

[@cherylclick1664]

at least it doesn't get cold like new york does

[@baskervillebee6097]

Those are just impossible conditions.

[@alkohallick2901]

They voted for it.

[@cherylclick1664]

[@Gotochurchor]

The people trying to stop this are the people with houses. People who have good jobs. Lawyers ect

[@poempadgett4664]

And who actually have to pay very high taxes, tbf.

[@Elrobogringo]

I've been living out of my car 2 and 1/2 years I f****** love it

When a KZbinr is better journalism than any New York official one

I can def see a world where millions of Americans live in vehicles, in zones for them, where they get a shore power connection for electricity, shared bathrooms and showers, and some central wifi/food areas. Basically a permanent Burning Man.

[@jeffreywoods4040]

No city will ever allow it, citing every safety concern imaginable is their usual MO.

[@mikeshafer]

@ LA already does! Lol
