There are a few parts of SD county that do have rent control (some trailer/RV parks etc..).

I am not sure why the above have not been sold already as some are in some prime locations for condos’ etc…

My guess is that if SD implements rent control over a wider area it will create a lot of chaos and displacement as landlords desperately try to sell ASAP.

LA county rent control is a lot more prevalent so it could turn ugly IMO.
