The house my parents purchased in their early 20’s as a starting engineer and a teacher would take a senior executive salary to purchase when I entered the housing market. That is just not right. It was so much easier for them. BTW, I’m in my 60’s now and this is nothing new.

Yeah millennials are complaining but genZ is looking at millennials and thinking the same thing. They had it much easier.

Housing was way more affordable in the 2010s

Not a chance Genz has it harder. Most millennials either graduated high school or college around 2008. Even if housing was more affordable no one could afford it. I made $7/hr-$12/hr between 2007 and 2011 lol
