Unemployment
If the previous methods did not help, check whether unemployment is the reason for the residents' inability to pay rent. Fans should pay attention to whether all the residents in the building have jobs, and if not, they have to create new jobs by building commercial and industrial zones.

And the last tip: use residential areas with different types of density. Build a mix of low-density and high-density zones. This way, residents who do not have enough money for expensive housing will be able to settle in cheap high-density areas.
