Making It In San Diego: Man stands up for seniors facing rent increases

Seniors are frustrated after years of rent hikes, forcing them to stretch their fixed income. The Escondido City Council is slated to vote on the proposed rent increase for Carefree Ranch, a senior mobile home community, on Wednesday. The agenda packet says the average rent per month for 70 fixed income tenants is $517.94. This year's proposed increase would add $10.70 each month.
