I truly believe this scenario existed 30 years ago but no longer.  Nothing is cheaper to rent or own when housing cost has gone up by 200% to 300%.

Half of the states in the US have a median housing cost of less than $200,00. Housing costs have gone up, but only certain areas have gone up the 200% - 300% you mentioned.

This is coming from someone who lives in an area where housing costs have gone up that 300%.
