A man and his family leave with their belongings after being evicted from a residential property by Lennie McCloskey, Constable of Manistee Justice Precint in Maricopa County on April 15, 2024 in Phoenix, Arizona. Maricopa is home to Phoenix, one of the fastest growing cities in the United States, a place where rents have skyrocketed since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, leaving an ever-increasing number of people in trouble. Much of the United States has seen house prices shoot up in recent years, taking rents with them. At the same time, wages have not kept pace, making housing an ever-larger proportion of a family's costs. (Photo by Frederic J. BROWN / AFP) (Photo by FREDERIC J. BROWN/AFP via Getty Images)
