Where exactly is this project located?
And did anyone else catch that phase one is fully leased, from $60 to $600 per month?? SIXTY DOLLARS???
Subsidized housing based on your monthly income,if the average rent is $600 and your income is that where your percentage is where you can afford say 20% then the balance is covered by the feds.Quote:

A lot of people do not like the concept because the result has been spreading problems over a large area verses a more contained section.A gang member or thug is still the same no matter where the roof is and as always a few ruin it for the majority.
