You're living in the past. 1 bedroom apts rent for $3000/mo. Houses go $5000 and up.

TDOS should squeeze his tennants more then.
The 1br has to be 'up to' rather than 'and up' though. Between a fold out bed and bunkbed, 3k$ is still ok for 3 people at 250$/week each.
I get your point of view. You consider people capable of getting their shit together and making things work. Lower housing expenses, find a roommate. No problemo. Simply get thy shit together. Personally my housing situation is not a concern at this time. And part of keeping my shit together is not messing up a good thing. Making bank while I still can.
But not everyone can get their shit together. Some people despite being considered human, need to have everything planned out for them. Without a script they have no fucking clue. Some people also have toxic personalities. Finding a roommate is impossible for them.
It is a situation full of contradictions, where personal flaws can cause financial ruin.
