They'll need an extra roommate next year.

That isn't nearly enough to drive housing inflation, in actuality it will barely keep them up with inflation in general...

It won't be housing inflation in NYC.. It will be the prices of every consumable you need that will skyrocket. Those with the $300 will keep up. All the singles will fall behind.
