Brenda Minor says she had "a beautiful house" she rented on the North Side for $595 a month when her landlord informed her last year that she had to move because it was being sold. That launched a four-month scramble to try to find a new place that the 65-year-old supply clerk for an Ohio State University medical facility could afford. She eventually settled on a townhouse near Route 161 that cost $750 a month — $155 or 26% more. "I didn't quite have finances then to, you know, pay to get in that," Minor said. "But God made a way and made a way. "It wasn't quite in the price range, but like I said, it was in October and I needed something. It was starting to get cold outside. I settled."
