I recently read an article about “affordable” apartments being constructed an hour or so away. 900 SF, one br and bath, $2200, in a right to work, $7.25/hr minimum wage state.
At least housing is actually being built, but I know what you mean. Theres no real affordable housing near me and the wait list for what little is available has been closed due to budget cuts.
Don’t forget the government cutting funding for affordable housing projects.
Amateur hour, my government funds ‘affordable’ housing projects that cost 300 grand and immediately turn into overpriced rentals.

that sounds cheap to me. where i live a new 1bd/1bath will be closer to 3000-3500
crappy leaky roach filled basement apartments go for 2200
What’s minimum wage? These are “low income.”
