Across Australia, almost half of all suburbs are classified as being in extreme pain based on the rental stress.
But Queensland and South Australia recorded the highest levels of stress overall, with 58 per cent of suburbs in both states scoring above 75.
Hary Millward is the General Secretary of the Renters and Housing Union.
He says extreme rental stress is something the organisation sees daily, with some of the people they advocate for spending a whopping 80 per cent of their income on rent.
