flag Renters in England struggle as rents consume over 36% of median income, especially in major cities.

flag Renters in England are facing tougher affordability, particularly in cities like London, Bristol, and Brighton, where average rents now consume over 36% of median income, up from 33.1% in 2023. flag In London, renters spend nearly 42% of their income on rent, which averages £1,957 monthly. flag Higher migration, rising rents, and stagnant supply have exacerbated the issue, though the Bank of England's recent base rate cut to 4% may offer some relief by potentially increasing rental stock and stabilizing prices.
