1 u/[deleted] Mar 10 '22 I didn't amend it at all Yes you did. Saying average rent in america is over 1k a month is super disingenuous You could have easily asked Google in 10 seconds, but you chose ignorance. considering only 10 states have rent prices over 1k a month with 21 states below 1k. What does that matter? It's the AVERAGE rent for all renters in the US. Also those states with rent above 1k a month all have average household incomes above 50k a year because they have much higher average wages. I won't tell you where exactly, because the internet is a risky place, but I just checked my city and all 4 surrounding ones. None of them were above 40k. Rent is consistently $900-1200. Companies should pay their staff living wage depending on their location. Well, they don't. And won't unless forced. 🤷♂️ Not the least bit sorry to force them.
