Press coverage 26 January 2024 Summary of published coverage
Suburbs in extreme rental crisis

The January Rental Pain Index from Suburbtrends found almost half of Australian suburbs were under extreme rental stress, with the Geelong suburbs of Newcomb and Norlane among the twenty worst nationally. PIPA chair Nicola McDougall described the recent Senate inquiry into the rental crisis as a waste of public money, a view disputed by tenant advocate Jordan van den Berg.
