People in These States Are Having the Hardest Time Paying Rent

Housing prices are up across the country, from the purchase prices of homes to the rental prices of apartments. Unfortunately, with inflation also at a high not seen in 13 years and the minimum wage stagnant, housing affordability is more and more of a problem. Based on median rent and median household income data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the three states where you'll spend the largest percentage of your income on rent (for a one-bedroom apartment) are Florida, California, and Hawaii.
