Legonatic@lemmy.worldtopolitics @lemmy.world•Massachusetts Has a Huge Waitlist for State-Funded Housing. So Why Are 2,300 Units Vacant?

1 year agoI used to live in Boston and only once did I find an apartment where I didn’t have to pay a last month of rent up front. The rental market there is very much predatory upon the droves of college students and other young people who don’t know any different or better. And for those who do know different, they basically have no choice.
Terrible idea for all the reasons that everyone has already stated. People in affordable housing deserve a real home too, not a dorm.
