I've lived in L..A. since the age of 5 and I can honestly tell you can literally see the income inequality every single day. Other than the weather I don't know why anyone would want to move out here. In addition to the high rents, there's the high price of gas and even higher taxes. It's a truly sad state of affairs. One that I would never think I would see in my lifetime. Thousands of people are being forced out of their homes and into their cars. There is no middle class in this city. In San Francisco, people who work in the city have been forced out because of high rents and now have to commute into the city which can take up 2-4 hours. Can you imagine that? Being forced out of your apartment and you now have to commute 4 hours to a job that probably would have taken you 30-40 minutes because you can no longer afford to live there. This is the new America.

EcClair Mayo You’re right, CA caters to the rich. And now with the opening of the new LA RAMS stadium in Inglewood, the long time residents of that community are fearful of the inevitable gentrification of their which undoubtedly lead to the increase in rent. More and more people are either being forced to flee LA to more affordable nearby cities or moving out of state altogether. There are so many people living in their cars because they can no longer afford their rent. It’s really sad because it’s happening to hard working Americans. People who actually played by the rules.

That is fine because my brother and sister will get their karma. Point is, they are greedy and wouldn't help me if I was on the road, dying. And I have done nothing wrong.

It is not the immigrant that worked for a living, it’s the generations of families on section 8, food stamps and free medical.

Even in 2019 going into 2020 the problem persists and seems there is no end to the lack of affordable housing. However, the resources are out there as well the funding. You just need to do your “Home”work and pray.

What about the property tax? It adds up real fast, especially on a fixed income. The community has outgrown her, don't wait until you're bankrupt to realize that. Some people find places outside of the US to retire in be style with access to medical, rather than suffer the torments of poverty.

a house may have helped if she could of afforded to buy one 30 years ago. what if she only made mn wage? she would not of been able to then. Plus even if she had, the property taxes would of increased so much it would now be like a house payment on a fixed income. and if she deferred her taxes, it is likely by the time she died the state would take her home as thw amount now duewould of eaten u her value of the house.

Yeah, there are small towns (population of 30,000 or less ) all over this country with cheaper rents than those big cities. Especially in the south. I live in the south in my small 'government " home. That's what we use to call VA houses. It has been paid for a long time. And of course I know a lot of people who live in mobile homes that they own and is on land they own.

You can't do those those types of rent increases here in Canada. In Canada, specifically where I live in Ontario, the landlord can only increase your rent by 4% per year by law. If the landlord wants to increase the rent more than that they have to justify the increase because of expenditures related to property development like adding an in-ground pool, or renovation the waiting area. They can't just raise the rent just because they want more money.

I hardly ever raised the rents. When & if I needed to I raised it $100.00. I thought that was a lot, but I really needed to. I would never have raised someone's rent $500.00 to $600.00 more per month even though I knew I could. That's cruel to do that to people.
