Anglicare Australia's tenth annual Rental Affordability Snapshot surveyed more than 69,000 private rental listings across Australia on the 23rd of March this year.
It then measured how affordable those houses were for people on a series of government income payments, and for people earning the minimum wage.
Overall, Anglicare's 2019 snapshot found, of the 69,485 rentals surveyed, 2.2 per cent (1,552) were affordable for someone on the minimum wage, and around 0.5 per cent for someone on the age pension (517) or Disability Support Pension (317).
