Society shouldn't be set up to keep people renting for their entire lives. It was like 3 generations ago that you could realistically get a home in your 30's on a single paycheck.
You still can, you just need to leave major cities.
Unfortunately, entitlement goes both ways for renters and landlords. They think they're entitled to maximize profit, you think you're entitled to live in places you can't afford.
Just unchecked greed all around, and the real people who suffer are the ones living in areas "not good enough" for you. But hey, you should get more before them, right?
Edit to all the downvoters: wake me up when somebody else solves your problems for you. I can wait.
Wanting to live where there are jobs, grocery stores, and health care facilities within a reasonable distance is not entitlement.
Or maybe they can't afford your suggestion. Do you have any idea how much it costs to move across the US? I've done it a few times and I can assure you that it's not cheap.
Right. There are no jobs, grocery stores, or health care facilities outside of major cities.
This is why you need more life experience. It's painfully obvious you lived in a major city all your life and think life in major cities is all that matters.
