Comments
US workers who earn less than $30,000 per year need to either have a spouse that also makes $30,000 per year or a roommate who makes $30,000 per year to pay for shelter. Rent costs in the US average $1372 per month. The US average Apartment Rent costs is $1702 for 900 sq feet. Apartment rent in big cities is higher and is lower in smaller cities. If $1500 per month is a good average, annual apartment rent is $18,000 per year. 36% of US households are renting.
When you add food inflation and energy inflation, It requires an annual household income of $60,000 to make ends meet.
