When you mention that the median income requirement is from $69,360 to $167,570, than how can you deem that this lottery is “affordable” ? You’ve had several articles this week where the income medians are consistently above that which the middle class can not afford. What is your definition of “affordable” then ? You are just like how the City of New York deems as “affordable”, not affordable to the average New Yorker. How irresponsible do people have to be to completely wipe out a whole class of citizens because of the issue over affordability? You claim your publication has the title of YIMBY. Yes in my backyard. How about YES in my backyard to stating or advocating for REAL affordable housing which is better than the standard that the City provides which is in their NYCHA apartments ? When is too much, too much. How about a “YIMBY” to that ? PLEASE !!!!!!
44 Kent street
This is not affordable housing in any means!!!
Nowadays who comes up with these income requirements???
This is an insult to real New Yorkers who busted their lives & can’t find any affordable housing. & God Forbid you end up physically disabled, like me.
My income is nowhere near enough for any of these places.
This is greed & shows exactly how life is in NYC. It’s unethical and immoral, most of us are nowhere near these income’s. Especially since the Pandemic even worse for some ppl are even homeless.
I mean seriously who comes up with area’s Median Income Guidelines for the 5 Borough’s???
