Christine Lopez is turning 49 later this year, which she says is pretty horrifying. She and her husband have been married for 17 years, and they’ve lived together in New York, Austin, and San Antonio, where they currently rent a 2,700 square-foot, four bedroom house for $3,200 a month. They have two kids.
They’ve always rented, never owned, and don’t seem to see that ever changing. At one point, owning a home felt like maybe it could be within reach, but now “it’s impossible,” Lopez told Fortune, adding that she just doesn’t see it happening.
