California. But also probably they are counting from first missed payment to actual eviction. Usually you don’t start trying to evict the day after rent was due.
Plus, "my expenses went up, so now I can raise prices" isn't supposed to be how markets work.

Cost of supplying the services is one of the biggest determinants of price. If prices fall below cost for too long then the entire market collapses.
If one provider's expenses went up, they generally can't raise prices, but if every provider's (even potential ones) expenses go up, then they can.

I’ve had it take nearly two years to evict in California. It requires a very motivated tenant but absolutely possible.
Yikes. That is a an absolute nightmare for a landlord. Where I live, I can evict a tenant if they violate their rental agreement and they have 3 days to vacate.
How on earth do you see a judge and get a judgement within 3 days? where I live you get a 3 days notice to leave if you want to avoid the judicial process, but you can stay and get your day in court in which case you'll be there significantly longer.
I don’t know. It’s brutal. You need an eviction from a judge, but it’s simple to get. You just apply with reason.
Some states passed their own laws but most did not last over a year, especially in southern states where renter protection tends to be weak.
Where would it take 16 months to evict a tenant for non-payment in the US?
