boon for a freelance writer. I took the job in
North County and we drove the RV to the Elks Club in Oceanside to look for apartments we could afford near the beach. After 25 years of free- lancing, I wasn’t going to take a full-time job just so I could live in a tiny apartment 20 miles from the beach. To say I was disap-
pointed in the selection of affordable housing near the coast would be an understatement. I found a rundown one- bedroom apartment right on the Coast Highway in a sketchy area in Oceans- ide behind a coffee shop for $1600. I looked at a 900-square-foot house in Carlsbad’s barrio area on Roosevelt Street, but it was $2500 and it had bars on the windows.

the bottom third of apart- ments, which they called “low-end,” in San Diego have a monthly rent of anything under $1950; middle, $1951 to $2389; and high-end, $2390 and
up. Rent prices as a whole went up about 6 percent from June 2015 to June 2016, but the low-end zoomed up 21.7 percent. San Diego County’s
lowest-income rent- ers spend 69 percent of income on rent, said the latest report from the California Hous- ing Partnership Corp. It said the median rent had increased 32 percent since 2000 while median renter household income, adjusted for inflation, had declined 2 percent. San Diego’s low-end rent
