New Yorkers never came “flooding back” after Covid (I looked everywhere for them, I promise) and more people are still moving out of the city than moving in. So for @Curbed I tried to figure out why rents have gone up so much.
All of the people who fled the city over the past three years should have left behind a surplus of empty, habitable apartments. What happened to them? And why is it so difficult and expensive to lease one now? trib.al/DciczY6
