Orange County is an expensive place to live as <br />are many other areas in California. There are more people than there is housing, therefore, the demand is high <br />and the supply is low. Beyond that, the taxes and regulations make it difficult to provide more housing. <br />Attacking the rental property owners by overstepping and interfering in their businesses is not the answer. <br />People of Santa Ana need to learn trades and increase their skills. Minimum wage jobs were never meant to <br />support families. When I bought my property in Santa Ana, no one lowered the price of the property for me. <br />Orange County is expensive. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford to stay here until the housing market can <br />match the number of houses needed. Blaming landlords for this does not make sense especially since the cost of <br />operating a rental housing business is continuing to rise. No one is entitled to live where they can not pay the <br />cost to live there. There are a lot of places that I would like to live, but do not because I can not afford to. <br />Thank you, <br />Kathy Millet <br />Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone <br />
