2020 data. Wildly obsolete data considering today's market in Florida.

I would be interested in seeing a comparison to 2022 Q3 or Q4 numbers (after the special sessions to "fix" the property insurance situation).

Rent is not a "burden". That word implies that it is imposed by some external entity. Rent is the satisfaction of your fundamental need for shelter just like food is satisfaction of your fundamental need of nourishment. Do you consider yourself "burdened" by the fact that your body needs to eat/breathe/excrete?

You should see European cities. Here it's not rare to spend over 40%.

Yes it is. In Europe people have substantially lower expenses in other large expenditure categories like healthcare and transportation, raising housing as a % of total expenditures. This is not as true in the US.
