These figures underscore how much rents have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rent-cost-us-2024-housing-national\/\">outpaced wages<\/a>, especially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/short-reads\/2022\/12\/19\/10-facts-about-u-s-renters-during-the-pandemic\/\">since the pandemic<\/a>.<strong> <\/strong>This effect is beginning to wear off, though, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/rental-tracker-july-2024\/\">rent prices stabilize<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So why are so many Jacksonville rentals affordable for teachers? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-are-riverside-rentals-affordable-to-teachers-nbsp\">Why are Riverside rentals affordable to teachers?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Riverside is so affordable for teachers largely because of its high wages and relatively low rents.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of 2024, the median wage for Riverside teachers was $102,309, up 21% from 2019 and far above the national median of $72,000. The median rent for teachers in Riverside is $2,315, well above the nationwide median of $1,647.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Riverside strikes a balance of high wages and relatively affordable housing, and is especially affordable when compared to other California metros. San Jose, for example, where the median rent is $3,250, pays teachers $2,000 less than Riverside. Los Angeles and San Diego see similar trends.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though California pays teachers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/local\/san-diego\/2024\/05\/13\/california-highest-teacher-salaries-nationwide\" rel=\"nofollow\">more than any other state<\/a> \u2013 pay has increased by upwards of 20% since 2019 in some metros \u2013 it\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/local\/san-diego\/2024\/05\/13\/california-highest-teacher-salaries-nationwide\" rel=\"nofollow\">still not enough<\/a>. Houses are widely unaffordable and many can\u2019t afford rentals, leaving some teachers to take on multiple jobs. It\u2019s no wonder <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csba.org\/-\/media\/CSBA\/Files\/Advocacy\/LegislativeAdvocacy\/ResearchReport.ashx\">12%<\/a> of California\u2019s teacher workforce turns over every year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help close the cost of living gap, the state has proposed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.k12dive.com\/news\/california-bill-50-percent-teacher-salary\/649419\/\">50% pay increase<\/a> over the next seven years and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kqed.org\/news\/11997949\/california-schools-keep-losing-teachers-the-state-wants-to-help-build-homes-for-them\">is looking into building<\/a> affordable homes for teachers on state-owned land.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-s-happening-with-teacher-affordability-nationwide\">What\u2019s happening with teacher affordability nationwide?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nationally, teacher salary growth has actually outpaced rent price growth. <strong>The <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nea.org\/resource-library\/educator-pay-and-student-spending-how-does-your-state-rank\"><strong>average public school teacher salary<\/strong><\/a><strong> in 2023-2024 is ~$72,000<\/strong>, up 3.1% from the year prior, while median asking rents increased just 0.4% over the same time period. Rent growth is slowing or reversing in some parts of the country due to an increase in apartment supply.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, many teachers are struggling to find affordable rentals. Rent growth has slowed but remains just $53 below its 2022 record high, and teacher salaries <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinedegrees.sandiego.edu\/teacher-salaries-analysis\/\">have not kept pace<\/a> with recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crfb.org\/blogs\/2022-inflation-hit-41-year-record\">historic inflation<\/a>. <strong>In fact, teacher salaries are actually 5% <\/strong><strong><em>lower <\/em><\/strong><strong>than a decade ago when adjusted for inflation<\/strong>. The combination of high rent prices, persistent inflation, and modest wage increases has resulted in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jchs.harvard.edu\/blog\/six-takeaways-americas-rental-housing-2024\">record-low affordability<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, in metros where teachers are paid more, affordability is often slightly better. An exception is in places with exceptionally expensive rentals, like San Jose and New York. These metros have among the lowest number of rentals affordable to teachers, even though median wages reach above $100,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-do-we-go-from-here\">Where do we go from here?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Homeownership remains out of reach for many educators, who, unlike many modern workers, don\u2019t have the flexibility to work remotely from somewhere more affordable. Unfortunately, rentals are also quite expensive in many cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few ways to help increase the amount of housing affordable to teachers include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/us-news\/education\/why-schools-are-building-housing-for-teachers-6838dbe4\">building affordable housing<\/a> near schools, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nea.org\/nea-today\/all-news-articles\/right-and-wrong-way-raise-educator-pay\">increasing pay<\/a>, and allowing <a href=\"https:\/\/aflcio.org\/what-unions-do\/empower-workers\/collective-bargaining\">collective bargaining<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-10-most-affordable-metros-for-teachers-looking-to-rent\">10 Most Affordable Metros for Teachers Looking to Rent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Metro<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Average share of rentals affordable to teachers*&nbsp;<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>YoY change in share of affordable rentals (ppts)*<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Median asking rent<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>YoY change in median asking rent<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Median teacher salary<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>YoY change in median teacher salary<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/oregon\/portland\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Portland, OR<\/a><\/td><td>91.3%<\/td><td>+16.4 ppts<\/td><td>$1,799<\/td><td>-3.8%<\/td><td>$95,486<\/td><td>+16.0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/pennsylvania\/pittsburgh\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Pittsburgh, PA<\/a><\/td><td>83.9%<\/td><td>+8.3 ppts<\/td><td>$1,465<\/td><td>-3.5%<\/td><td>$71,162<\/td><td>+3.9%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/georgia\/atlanta\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Atlanta, GA<\/a><\/td><td>82.0%<\/td><td>+21.0 ppts<\/td><td>$1,573<\/td><td>-0.9%<\/td><td>$76,004<\/td><td>+15.3%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/florida\/jacksonville\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Jacksonville, FL<\/a><\/td><td>80.6%<\/td><td>+37.0 ppts<\/td><td>$1,465<\/td><td>-14.3%<\/td><td>$68,436<\/td><td>+4.3%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/texas\/houston\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Houston, TX<\/a><\/td><td>78.8%<\/td><td>+2.0 ppts<\/td><td>$1,299<\/td><td>+9.6%<\/td><td>$65,624<\/td><td>+4.8%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/california\/riverside\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Riverside, CA<\/a><\/td><td>78.4%<\/td><td>+4.0 ppts<\/td><td>$2,315<\/td><td>+1.8%<\/td><td>$102,309<\/td><td>+2.0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/washington\/seattle\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Seattle, WA<\/a><\/td><td>77.5%<\/td><td>+9.4 ppts<\/td><td>$2,075<\/td><td>-3.5%<\/td><td>$98,573<\/td><td>+8.0%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/ohio\/cincinnati\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Cincinnati, OH<\/a><\/td><td>74.2%<\/td><td>-3.9 ppts<\/td><td>$1,356<\/td><td>+9.9%<\/td><td>$65,464<\/td><td>+4.9%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/michigan\/detroit\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Detroit, MI<\/a><\/td><td>69.9%<\/td><td>-2.1 ppts<\/td><td>$1,392<\/td><td>+1.6%<\/td><td>$64,139<\/td><td>-0.1%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rent.com\/california\/sacramento\/apartments_townhouses_condos_houses\">Sacramento, CA<\/a><\/td><td>67.2%<\/td><td>+17.0 ppts<\/td><td>$2,047<\/td><td>+1.6%<\/td><td>$90,426<\/td><td>+10.5%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Table sorted by average share of rentals affordable to teachers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*Within commuting distance of school<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-methodology\">Methodology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/teacher-housing-affordability-2024\/\">Redfin analysis<\/a> of local median teacher salaries and rental listings in commuting distance of public and private PreK-12 schools across 33 major U.S. metropolitan areas, as of July 2024.
