We have HUD community housing here and the lines are long to get into one.
We also have a city that is very desirable weather wise and high tech industries are invading this area and it's called Silicon Beach.
Not the place I came to in the 60's...but I'm so fortunate to have gotten in on Rent Control, my 700 sq ft apt is approaching $900/mo. We get an increase every year rain or shine.
Only $900/month? My one bedroom in Phoenix costs more than that! I'd say you have a killer deal on your hands

Dr Carson's an idiot who said the ACA was worse for this country than the Civil War, WW I, WW II, Korea, Vietnam, etc.
And it's not as if the Trump team is led by someone who wasn't given many things.
And WHAT has he contributed to society that wasn't done for his own benefit?
Who is talking lavishly? Poor people should be able to live with a roof.
Housing and food are not rights. Neither is cable TV, a large fridge, massage chairs, and 2 car garage and master with walk in closet. But sure the government is providing housing for the poor, don't expect to be very comfortable.
Here is a hint, people in low income neighborhoods driving BMWs and Mercedes' are usually dealing drugs, and they know that their neighbors won't try to steal them for fear of retaliation
My wife drives Porsche Cayenne (2005) and I drive a BMW 5 series (2007).....we are middle class....I just buy them used she bought hers for $10,500 in excellent condition and I get it at a good deal and I know how to work on them so I save money from taking it to a mechanic unless its a big problem and I don't have the equipment to fix it but that's what extended warranties are for.
In used car dealers you can find used BMW, Mercedes and Audis for cheap and German cars are better built than American cars. Depends of the year, model and mileage.....so just because you see someone who is low income driving a BMW doesn't mean they are selling drugs or upper class......in my state of Utah you see a lot of BMW on the streets especially the 3 series and young people drive them.....there not expensive if you buy it used.
I know low income people who hustle everyday and work hard multiple jobs and do things on the side which they get paid cash and they do buy at the used car dealers.
This comment coming from a man totally inexperienced in government, who was given his cabinet post from an equally clueless, inexperienced President
did you said the same thing on Obama when he was elected President in 2008?...of course not........inexperienced in government doesn't matter for liberals as long that you are a Democrat and push for a big welfare state, then inexperience doesn't matter. LOL
Did you said the same thing on Hillary Clinton when Obama as a political favor named her Secretary of State......at least BEN isn't compromising national security by putting a personal server in his basement which wasn't secure to hackers and selling out the office to the highest bidder worldwide while his foundation is getting millions of dollars from all over the world and then when subpoena destroyed 30,000 emails.
is that the "experience" you democrats want in office?.....

Obama was a Senator before he was President, while The Cheeto never had ANY government position before becoming pResident...
"Think Progress!" LOL You read that garbage from the "Center for American Progress?" I know what Carson meant, and he's right. Why can't you Leftists wackos?
Somebody in need of a roof over their head doesn't need a luxury condo.
