Having rented in a number of different states, I'd say for all practical purposes you should assume that pro-renter / rent-control laws don't exist anywhere but NYC. It does in places, but in my experience it's on just such a different order of magnitude that it's not even useful to compare the two.
Granted, one of my big frames of reference is living in San Francisco in the dot.com era -- a lot of families who thought something would stop their rent from doubling very quickly found out that, in practice, not so much.
