Map the monthly cost of renting across American counties, revealing where housing affordability remains accessible versus where renters face crushing cost burdens. This visualization exposes coastal California counties where median rents exceed $2,000 per month alongside vast rural regions where $500-750 remains typical - a geographic rent divide that increasingly determines where young people can afford to launch careers and where families can avoid housing poverty.
