The link is a Fox outlet, but I have no reason to doubt this one and it shows where our housing market is going:

Every teacher I know has multiple jobs. Even ones that are married also work other jobs. And its still just not enough without a husband or a partner. I cant survive in the city, said Joellen Fletcher, a single mom who works at a school in Las Vegas. She asked FOX5 not to identify the school.
Clark County leaders said that the Las Vegas Valley is short tens of thousands of affordable rental units. In the meantime, Nevadans struggle to afford sky-rocketing rent increases and compete for available inventory.
Fletcher also said her income doesnt meet the minimum requirements in many places, which require three times the rent.
When I apply for properties, for a while, there were anywhere between five to twenty other families and applicants applying for the same property. And I dont have the best credit, I dont have a partner, I dont have a great paying job, said Fletcher, who said she has spent $1,000 on applications.
