Setting Rental Prices

This is kind of a silly question but:

Is it considered rude/nosy to tell your landlord you think they should charge more in rent for their next tenants?

We live in downtown Blacksburg (Virginia) which is a college town, and as such commands fairly high rental rates and high turnover. Being an (ex) real estate agent I spent a lot of time searching the area for a rental and visited quite a few places before deciding on this one.

We are moving soon (for job reasons) and I want to tell my landlord that he really should be charging more for the rent based on the market (even if he didn't want to rent to college students) but I don't want to insult him.

So, should I just let it go or should I let him know?
