Episode Synopsis

Affordability is relative. What you can afford to pay in rent all depends on how much money you make in the first place. So how do wages relate to Arizona's growing affordability problem?

In part two of this five-part podcast series, reporter Katherine Davis-Young explores the widening gap between wages and housing costs in Arizona.
