I’m in a part of our state with a low cost of living, but rent here is getting to be $1000/mo for a well-used house trailer or tiny apartment

I don’t know how young people can ever get out of moms basement with that while making 15-20 bucks an hour

My sister got married to her husband Gary in 1969.

One-bedroom apartments rented where they looked (Niskayuna, NY) for about $170 to $200/month. The minimum wage was $1.65/hour.

Now $15/hour is commonly paid, so expect to pay about nine-fold more for an apartment there - $1530 to $1800/month.
