I will Never Qualified Either For None of this Apartments.
It’s Bad Living Upstate. NY
Binghamton NY have an abusive wanna be caretaker and not being able to escape. From him NO NYPD does not do anything here so I have my daughter in Brooklyn NY but up here it’s too much Racist going on they Don’t care about us the PRicans.
This is what? Affordable housing for whom? Teachers and seniors cannot afford these apartments units. We need real affordable units to live in. I need a two bedrooms unit. How much will I pay for rent in this so called affordable building?
This place looks better than some of the other new buildings.
But 2-beds should be open for any families with steady full time jobs making under 100K.
As is, I don’t think this works out for many people. Examples:
Couple #1 with 1 kid: one is NYC teacher for 10 years (80K) and one has been a firefighter for 10 years (100K). They make too much (180K) and don’t qualify for 2-bed. If they happen to qualify, 2100 for rent for them is a steal.
Couple #2 with 1 kid: one works in retail (40K) and one works at restaurant (30K) so they make too little to qualify and even if they did the rent would be a stretch.
