$17.14
PEOPLE WHO DON'T EARN THIS MUCH PER HOUR CAN'T AFFORD A DECENT ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT.

The 2017 U.S. Fair Market Rent for a one bedroom home is $891/month.

Based on the rule of thumb that rent should be no more than 30% of income, one would need to earn $2,970/month to afford that.

That works out to $17.14 per hour, working full time.
