A CoreLogic post-pandemic affordability report found that since March 2020, Moreton Bay North house rents had increased 35.8 per cent, to a median of $571 per week.
Mr Smith said he started living in his ute last Christmas and had been unable to find an affordable rental since, due to skyrocketing costs.
Moreton Bay councillor Karl Winchester said in a statement that the council had implemented a range of initiatives for the region’s homeless.
“While it is important that there is compassion from government during this housing crisis, it is equally valid that public safety and amenity be upheld,” Cr Winchester said.
