Reply to Rent too damn high? Landlords have formed an illegal cartel according to several reports by cogitator_tertius
Big fan of the heavily downvote comments essentially being “Well the free market would…”. It’s abundantly obvious they didn’t even read any of the links, just came here to shill for capitalism.
It sucks feeling like I participate in the gambit of raising rent prices, there really aren’t that many options as far as 1BD apartments and as a result I live in a 5/1 that’s significantly over priced. You’d be hard pressed to find anything in J Ward/Arts District for less that $1400 that isn’t run down.

Just because everywhere else sucks doesn’t mean Richmond isn’t bad. Sure a 1BD in New York is $4000 that doesn’t make $1600 here any less shitty.

In many cases with smaller elections, independents have a decent chance, and can often be the best choice.
