    I’m going to give the most charitable interpretation of this possible that someone could report on:

    “Rate of country-wide renting cost increases falls this month after unprecedented rise in renting prices following the start of the COVID 19 pandemic- three year change in renting prices still vastly outpace country-wide wage growth despite this month’s minor rent-price movement relief”

    Example:

    [Rent Prices]

    Oct: 2020: $60/mo

    Oct 2023: $100/mo

    Nov 2023: $105/mo

    Dec 2023: $107/mo

    [Wages]

    Oct 2020: $180/mo

    Nov 2023: $227/mo

    Dec 2023: $227/mo + 1-time holiday bonus of $5

    But the second derivative of the average country-wide rent prices is less positive this month than last month why won’t the people rejoice?!?!
