  • Rents are raising faster than wages.

Working families are being asked to do more with less. When housing costs outpace income, stability disappears and everyday people fall behind.

  • Cleveland families want stability, not eviction notices.

Across Cuyahoga County, renters and homeowners alike are cost-burdened, with many paying more than 30% of their income on housing, a level tied to higher eviction risk and financial instability.

  • Seniors deserve to age in place with dignity.
In Cuyahoga County, more than half of renting seniors face high housing cost burdens, meaning rent consumes too much of their income and threatens their ability to stay in the homes they’ve lived in for decades.
  • Cleveland needs leadership that puts people first.

With rents climbing faster than wages and affordable units still in short supply, Cleveland needs proactive leadership to protect residents, not policies that leave families priced out of their own neighborhoods.

  • Charlotte Perkins Believes

Our communities are strongest when people have a stable, safe, and affordable place to call home.

  • What’s Happening in Cleveland:
  • Families are moving farther from jobs and schools.
  • Children are forced to change schools mid-year.
  • Seniors are choosing between medication and rent.
  • Longtime residents are being replaced by higher rents.
  • Cleveland Families Are Being Priced Out of Their Own Neighborhoods

Across Cleveland, families are facing:

  • Rising rents with little protection
  • Limited access to affordable housing
  • Displacement driven by speculation and neglect

Seniors on fixed incomes are especially vulnerable. Many fear losing the homes they’ve lived in for decades. Others are forced to choose between housing costs and basic necessities.

Charlotte Perkins believes housing policy should protect people, not profit at their expense.

Charlotte's Approach to Housing in Cleveland

Charlotte Perkins is committed to housing policies that keep families rooted and communities intact.

In Columbus, she will fight for:

  • Expanded access to affordable housing

  • Protections for renters and homeowners

  • Policies that prevent displacement and instability

  • Housing solutions that reflect Cleveland’s real needs

This is not about quick fixes.
It’s about long-term stability.

JOIN NOW
  • Housing is not a privilege for the highest bidder. It is the foundation of stable families and strong communities.
