Rents have outpaced wages in 44 of the 50 largest U.S. metro areas.\nWages caught up last year nationally and in about half of major metros.\nIn New York City, rents grew more than seven times faster than wages last year — the largest gap in the country.\n\nSEATTLE, May 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Rent prices have surged in recent years, and wages have not kept pace. While last year was a bright spot — wages grew faster than rents nationally and in almost half of major U.S. metro areas — the opposite was true in New York City, where the nation's largest gap emerged.\n\n  \n\nSince 2019, U.S. rents have grown 1.5 times faster than wages, according to a new analysis of rental data from Zillow® and StreetEasy®, along with wage data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.1 Demand for rentals from the large millennial generation — many of whose members have remained renters longer than previous cohorts — and Gen Z adults has run headlong into the country's housing shortage, causing rents to quickly rise.\nThat trend cooled last year, as national rent growth (3.4%) was outpaced by wage growth (4.3%). Strong multifamily construction has helped absorb demand for apartments, keeping rent growth in check in much of the country. But rents grew more than seven times faster than wages across New York City's five boroughs last year. That gap between rent growth (8.6%) and wage growth (1.2%) in New York City was larger than in any of the 50 biggest U.S. metro areas.\n\"It is encouraging to see much of the country making even modest progress in the rental affordability crisis. Unfortunately, New York City is heading in the opposite direction,\" said StreetEasy Senior Economist Kenny Lee. \"Despite a strong job market in the city, and in some ways because of it, the gap between what a typical renter can afford and the price of rentals on the market is growing. New multifamily buildings coming online has eased competitive pressure in many markets, but in New York City, construction just simply can't keep up with demand.\"\nModerating rent growth across the country has given wages a chance to catch up, providing a reprieve for renters in many markets. Rents dipped in three markets last year — Austin; Portland, Oregon; and San Francisco — while wages continued to grow. In 20 other metros, rents grew, but wages grew faster, giving renters some breathing room.\nFlorida markets occupy three of the five spots where rent growth has most dramatically outpaced wage growth over the past five years. Florida has been a migration hot spot since the pandemic, with new residents attracted by the possibility of year-round outdoor living and relatively affordable housing compared to many coastal markets.\nThis surge in demand has led to skyrocketing rents in the state, while wages have struggled to keep up. Even in Miami, where wage growth has been slightly above the national average, a nearly 53% increase in rents — the most dramatic jump of any U.S. market — has left a huge gap between the income residents are earning and the income they need to comfortably afford the area's typical rental.\nWages have consistently outpaced rents in recent years in only six major metros. The biggest gaps have been in San Francisco, San Jose and Houston.\nZillow and StreetEasy toolsZillow and StreetEasy have a number of tools that help renters with affordability and access.\nThe upfront costs of finding a place to rent can add up, with Zillow research showing those costs tend to be higher for renters of color. In New York City, upfront costs average almost $10,500, with broker fees often the largest expense. Lowering upfront rental costs will give all New Yorkers expanded choices in the rental market, which is one of the reasons Zillow and StreetEasy are advocating for broker fee reform.\nFor all apartment buildings, Zillow includes a \"costs & fees\" breakdown to help renters gauge the full affordability picture by highlighting certain onetime costs, such as application fees and security deposits, as well as recurring costs, such as parking. While the typical renter nationally pays $60 in application fees across all the rentals they applied for, Zillow offers a universal rental application that allows renters to apply to an unlimited number of participating rentals for 30 days for a flat fee of $35.\nZillow rental listings also include rooms for rent — individual rooms in units or homes — bringing more affordable rentals online. Renters using Zillow can include \"room\" listings in their searches alongside traditional \"entire place\" options.\n\n\n\n\n\n2019–2023 \n2023 Only \n\n\nMetro Area* \nRent Increase \nWage Increase \nDifference(Percentage Points) \nRent Increase \nWage Increase \nDifference (Percentage Points) \n\n\nUnited States \n30.4 % \n20.2 % \n10.2 \n3.4 % \n4.3 % \n-0.9 \n\n\nNew York City** \n27.5 % \n11.2 % \n16.3 \n8.6 % \n1.2 % \n7.4 \n\n\nLos Angeles, CA \n22.2 % \n17.2 % \n5.0 \n2.0 % \n2.7 % \n-0.7 \n\n\nChicago, IL \n22.3 % \n8.5 % \n13.8 \n5.4 % \n-0.1 % \n5.5 \n\n\nDallas, TX \n29.0 % \n19.5 % \n9.5 \n1.1 % \n2.0 % \n-0.9 \n\n\nHouston, TX \n20.6 % \n24.4 % \n-3.8 \n2.7 % \n8.0 % \n-5.3 \n\n\nWashington, DC \n18.0 % \n12.8 % \n5.2 \n4.6 % \n3.5 % \n1.1 \n\n\nPhiladelphia, PA \n24.2 % \n14.8 % \n9.4 \n4.0 % \n2.0 % \n2.0 \n\n\nMiami, FL \n52.6 % \n20.4 % \n32.2 \n2.4 % \n3.6 % \n-1.2 \n\n\nAtlanta, GA \n35.6 % \n12.2 % \n23.4 \n0.3 % \n0.2 % \n0.1 \n\n\nBoston, MA \n22.4 % \n13.4 % \n9.0 \n5.8 % \n-1.0 % \n6.8 \n\n\nPhoenix, AZ \n39.1 % \n16.6 % \n22.5 \n0.9 % \n3.4 % \n-2.5 \n\n\nSan Francisco, CA \n3.4 % \n12.0 % \n-8.6 \n-0.1 % \n2.6 % \n-2.7 \n\n\nRiverside, CA \n41.4 % \n23.3 % \n18.1 \n3.1 % \n5.9 % \n-2.8 \n\n\nDetroit, MI \n31.4 % \n22.0 % \n9.4 \n3.6 % \n4.2 % \n-0.6 \n\n\nSeattle, WA \n19.7 % \n7.7 % \n12.0 \n2.5 % \n2.6 % \n-0.1 \n\n\nMinneapolis, MN \n13.5 % \n17.1 % \n-3.6 \n2.7 % \n5.6 % \n-2.9 \n\n\nSan Diego, CA \n36.6 % \n18.8 % \n17.8 \n3.1 % \n1.4 % \n1.7 \n\n\nTampa, FL \n50.0 % \n15.3 % \n34.7 \n2.7 % \n0.4 % \n2.3 \n\n\nDenver, CO \n23.1 % \n20.3 % \n2.8 \n3.0 % \n5.1 % \n-2.1 \n\n\nBaltimore, MD \n22.8 % \n8.0 % \n14.8 \n3.5 % \n2.6 % \n0.9 \n\n\nSt. Louis, MO \n31.2 % \n22.6 % \n8.6 \n5.4 % \n5.6 % \n-0.2 \n\n\nOrlando, FL \n36.3 % \n17.4 % \n18.9 \n1.0 % \n-0.3 % \n1.3 \n\n\nCharlotte, NC \n33.9 % \n13.4 % \n20.5 \n1.7 % \n4.5 % \n-2.8 \n\n\nSan Antonio, TX \n22.3 % \n15.2 % \n7.1 \n0.3 % \n3.6 % \n-3.3 \n\n\nPortland, OR \n21.0 % \n24.0 % \n-3.0 \n-0.2 % \n2.9 % \n-3.1 \n\n\nSacramento, CA \n28.6 % \n16.2 % \n12.4 \n3.0 % \n1.6 % \n1.4 \n\n\nPittsburgh, PA \n22.7 % \n12.5 % \n10.2 \n4.7 % \n3.0 % \n1.7 \n\n\nCincinnati, OH \n36.5 % \n15.2 % \n21.3 \n7.3 % \n0.9 % \n6.4 \n\n\nAustin, TX \n23.1 % \n13.6 % \n9.5 \n-2.3 % \n2.4 % \n-4.7 \n\n\nLas Vegas, NV \n34.3 % \n14.4 % \n19.9 \n2.2 % \n0.2 % \n2.0 \n\n\nKansas City, MO \n33.3 % \n10.1 % \n23.2 \n6.1 % \n4.9 % \n1.2 \n\n\nColumbus, OH \n30.6 % \n21.9 % \n8.7 \n6.0 % \n4.3 % \n1.7 \n\n\nIndianapolis, IN \n37.2 % \n6.6 % \n30.6 \n4.5 % \n2.7 % \n1.8 \n\n\nCleveland, OH \n32.1 % \n16.4 % \n15.7 \n5.1 % \n0.8 % \n4.3 \n\n\nSan Jose, CA \n6.0 % \n12.5 % \n-6.5 \n0.8 % \n6.6 % \n-5.8 \n\n\nNashville, TN \n29.1 % \n17.7 % \n11.4 \n0.6 % \n2.6 % \n-2.0 \n\n\nVirginia Beach, VA \n35.5 % \n25.3 % \n10.2 \n4.9 % \n5.2 % \n-0.3 \n\n\nProvidence, RI \n44.2 % \n22.4 % \n21.8 \n7.3 % \n3.4 % \n3.9 \n\n\nJacksonville, FL \n36.7 % \n9.7 % \n27.0 \n0.1 % \n0.0 % \n0.1 \n\n\nMilwaukee, WI \n25.8 % \n26.3 % \n-0.5 \n5.9 % \n5.5 % \n0.4 \n\n\nOklahoma City, OK \n28.9 % \n19.7 % \n9.2 \n4.2 % \n2.5 % \n1.7 \n\n\nRaleigh, NC \n30.7 % \n15.2 % \n15.5 \n1.1 % \n4.9 % \n-3.8 \n\n\nMemphis, TN \n36.0 % \n13.1 % \n22.9 \n1.4 % \n-1.1 % \n2.5 \n\n\nRichmond, VA \n33.3 % \n32.1 % \n1.2 \n3.1 % \n5.7 % \n-2.6 \n\n\nLouisville, KY \n31.7 % \n23.0 % \n8.7 \n6.1 % \n4.4 % \n1.7 \n\n\nNew Orleans, LA \n24.1 % \n18.1 % \n6.0 \n2.8 % \n4.7 % \n-1.9 \n\n\nSalt Lake City, UT \n33.4 % \n28.6 % \n4.8 \n0.8 % \n5.5 % \n-4.7 \n\n\nHartford, CT \n35.5 % \n7.6 % \n27.9 \n7.1 % \n3.9 % \n3.2 \n\n\nBuffalo, NY \n35.5 % \n12.8 % \n22.7 \n6.2 % \n0.7 % \n5.5 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n*Table ordered by market size  \n\n\n**Includes only New York City's five boroughs \n\n\n\n\nAbout Zillow GroupZillow Group, Inc.
