“Commuting is a common strategy for working families to cope with high housing costs. When the cost of transportation is considered together with the cost of housing, the percentage of working families paying more than half their total expenditures increases five-fold from 8.3 percent to 44.3 percent of workingfamilies.”

ChallengesAging properties, not enough rent revenue or HUD
funding to cover expensesStaff salaries are the lowest in city, difficult to
retain good staff A number of tenants with history of mental illness,
substance abuse and homelessness. Requires intensive services as well as staff time. Vulnerable populations taken advantage of – letting in homeless people, disrupting meetings and yelling at other tenants, fist fights, partying, excessive damage to units (broken windows, holes in walls), graffiti, threatening notes under door, threatening our staff
Lack of security. Do have good response from AAPD
