Rental Affordability Index November 2024
SGS Economics and Planning is proud to release the tenth edition of the Rental Affordability Index (RAI), marking a decade of tracking rental trends and challenges across Australia. Since the first RAI in 2015, rental affordability has declined in most cities, limiting where people can live and work and reshaping communities nationwide. Once affordable areas like South West Sydney and South East Melbourne are now increasingly out of reach for average rental households.
We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and their continuing connection to land, sea and community.
