I guess that all depends on where you live. Rents in my area are disproportionate to the wages. If you are a young person making $15/hr. how are you suppose to pay rents that are $1,200 - $1,500 a month? They won't even consider you unless you are making 3 times the rent.
I know, I know...get a second job, get roommates, blah blah blah. MY OPINION - A single person making an average wage in an area should be able to afford the average rent in that area.
Those rents are about double what I paid when I graduated university. My rents were always between $600-700 for a one bedroom apartment.
