I had been there only a month.I moved to an motel, washed everything clothing wise before moving it. 

When we touched it, it was soft, discolored and felt damp!

I'm learning that some tenants will move out, take only their clothes, and leave all the other crap behind.

Not so much if you are trying to buy a house).In addition, inflation is typically measured using the consumer price index, of which housing only makes up about 23%, so it's not a 1:1 correlation - an increase in the price of bread, or milk, or gasoline, or clothing, or movie tickets directly effects the CPI.

Also paying attention to how clean the kids hands and faces (not clothes necessarily) are can be a good sign of how on it the parents are.

Also, at the end of the day, housing is necessary, like food and clothes, they need a place to stay no matter what.

Spending also slid in health care and goods (such as clothing and footwear).

I earn a healthy six-figure income but I wear regular clothes and most my renters drive nicer cars than I do.

Shoes from Payless and clothes from Walmart that we’re placed on layaway.

I have heard that used furniture and used clothing are two common ways bed bugs get into properties.
