I don't dislike the place I dislike how it's run,if your family or close to someone. That work within the housing authority they the one get thing done under the table there the ones being move to the top of the waiting list there the ones given an apartment when others are told there not any.and there the ones I'm going to the director about I have a disability mental disorder but not treated as though I have one .and I feel the way the housing budget goes which is 30% of your income not counting 30th% after your other bills is paid like heat electricity phone bill food washing things needs to change within our system it's also hard to get into a nice neighbors hood because every landlord management wants to dig into your back ground and credit check after housing have already done there digging even though I decided to go back to school to better my life I must still stand up for others who can't and won't speak up because you have others putting there two cent in saying well get off of cha ..remember nothing is free we still have to pay 30% of income by every member that have a income within that lease an household....so I don't think hud have helped the blacks it have only put us deeper in debt not just blacks all nationality...I also feel if I have a mental disability and a family member is willing to help take care of me I feel that person's portion of rent should be waived under the disability act because they are there to help me.but the system don't look at it that way because it's not them or
there family.it's so stressful and depression at time my god help us all..
