Poll: Have you ever had to move because of high rents?

Or were you able to weather it out?

THE COALITION IS still internally trashing out how to address rising rents across the country.

Some people have been able to weather out rising rents, but it has hit others hard, requiring them to move into a more affordable area.

We want to know about your experience: Have you ever had to move because of high rents?


Poll Results:

Yes (3016)
No (2370)
I've never rented. (814)
