  1. A lot of times with section 8, they are in high crime areas. It can also lower property values etc. A lot of places don't take section 8.
  2. I currently am in low income housing BUT I dont see it being low income. I moved here with no job, ect. Family is here. I got into low income housing..Found work shortly after that, Found even a better jojb. And my rent is no where near affordable. The apartments are now being teared down so most good tenants were offered a Section 8 voucher. I looked for several months. Most are in very bad areas. Their inspections seem pretty silly. Section 8 doesnt pay too much, And in my case they wouldnt pay anything. So basicly I was screwed. I am closing on a home tomorrow. Staying the "the system" they were going to give me appliances, and also 400.00 (I have a 3bedroom) for moving. The apartments were sold and being torn down. But now that I am better myself and going off the system they wont even let me buy the applicances that Ive had, They will not help me with moving expenses. So their self sufficiate (sp) for people I dont see...I am prolly one of the better tenants, no issues, no problems, nothing.I have always worked since living there.
  3. The recipients, most of them are drug addicts. People who get things for free disrespect them, ie, they trash the place.
