The cost of rent has skyrocketed. We need a cap on rent and/or the percentage increase per year. It has gotten to the point, especially in the safer areas of a city, that rent has become unaffordable. The majority of people renting are those who cannot afford a house (lower paying jobs, young adults just out of school, etc) and having a high rent prevents them from saving to buy a house.
