Rising Rent & Housing Costs

This Is Wisconsin · Wed Jul 1, 2026

I think things are out of control.

Same, it's so like to be able to make dinner for your family at home is the same prices going out almost.

Was there a grocery price that you saw recently that made your eyes bug out when you were buying food?

Usually it's the whole receipt.

You used to be able to buy a big box of cereal.

If you know, I don't even know exactly $3 or $4 if it was on sale.

Now it's like $5.

I mean, things are definitely getting, you know, more expensive and, you know, everyday kind of essentials, groceries, things of that nature.

I mean, I know, I mean, it's still manageable, but I know my rent's gone up appreciably each year.

Did

it feel like there's enough affordable options for places to live or does it feel like that's something that could do some improvement?

I mean, there's definitely a need for more, always, a need

for more affordable housing.
