[quote=Happs]No I haven’t, but I’m sure if you do an internet search on crime in public housing. section 8 crime, or housing authority crime, you might worry about living in close proximity to one of these properties. If the landlords of these properties did better background checks on public housing tenants, you would have less crime.[/quote]
I understand what you think you might have read on the “internet,” Happs, but SD doesn’t have any “public housing” or “public housing tenants.” SD’s Housing Authority relies on private landlords to accept Section 8 vouchers. The waiting list is very, very long and the application and qualification process is very thorough. As an applicant/tenant, if you had been on a waiting list 3-12 years for a Section 8 voucher and finally received one (making your $1180 mo rent effectively $221) would you fvck it up by causing trouble at your rental property complex??
