I currently live in a lottery unit that houses a majority of folks in need of supportive housing. Although, there’s a roof over my head and the location is phenomenal (major upcoming transportation hub), the conditions of the building is deplorable.

There’s trash everywhere, elevators are constantly out of service, loud neighbors, there was a gym and rooftop advertised in thoe original listing none was built in the almost two years I have been there, also a neighbor threatened to beat me up because I declined a date. My neighbors are also very loud and I hear one verbally attack her children daily.

The apartment has great views and stellar location but I can’t take living there sometimes . As much as I love to stay in the area, I can’t afford it on a single income below $100k. I hear the horror stories of broker fees (which are asinine). I want out so bad though. Please suggest anything as I never moved to a MR apartment.

Also! Please be weary of buildings that are majority supportive housing! DO NOT MOVE IN!
