Worst Cities for Renters
Cities with few available rentals, high rents, and low satisfaction fared worst on the list of cities for renters. Three of the worst cities can be found in Southern California and other markets recognized nationally for the zooming local real estate prices. Renters in these areas are feeling the crunch, both in their pocket book and in their quality of life.


Costa Mesa, CA
Fullerton, CA
Anaheim, CA
Miami, FL
San Francisco, CA

Answer 1

I'd have to agree, based on what I've heard. Although in CA you do get a credit on your tax return for what you pay in rent, and in many states you can only get a credit if you own - and of course the federal deduction is only available to owners.
