Lot of US renting. Rate of homeownership is down since 2004 while number of renters is going up & up.
Latest data (from 2015 though) by Census bureau show the share of renters is steadily increasing while homeownership is down almost 5% since 2004. And they are building so many of them. From my recent count, just within the 2 mile radius of Hillsboro, next to Tanasbourne area, there are about 10,000 rental units in over 40 properties.
