> everyone... is still living in the same apartment

I don't think this is a function of rent control. The people who were renting 10-20 years ago will still need somewhere to live.

If there isn't sufficient new housing available, then this increases competition for existing housing, but kicking people out of their homes doesn't seem like a good solution either.
