>> There’s not a single county in the US where a minimum wage income covers the cost of a two-bedroom apartment.[1]
This is only true if you define paying for said apartment using the 30% of your income rule of thumb, which on top of a two bedroom apartment on minimum wage for a single earner is REALLY stretching reality. Federal minimum wage covers it if you increase 30% upwards easily in a lot of counties.
