I'm not getting the services I need, they won't call me back, this apartment is almost as bad as the one we lived in in Ohio but the services are better than any other place we've lived. Seriously. I can even get a house or condo on section 8 it just takes time. 275k is not an expensive home here, it's in a low income area with lots of homeless programs around it. Resale will be **** but that's not the point. I'm not planning for a high income I'm planning for
20% less than what one person makes. Yes the potential to earn a quarter million a year is there but it's not what we are talking about.
