It's been prevalent for a while. When I was in the shelter in 2015, NO landlord would take my section 8 voucher. I applied to roughly a few hundred places, and not one person wanted it.

Took my voucher to a different state and found a place there. that still haunts me to this day. I made it out of the Armory shelter, but I lost everyone and everything I had.

Sorry to hear. I unfortunately might be headed back in the system.

I'd made it out during lockdown, but then a debilitating injury and spine surgery 3 months ago left me with a life-threatening infection.

Tapping this from NYU Langone Orthopedic hospital on 17th while receiving IV antibiotic infusion treatment.

Nice view from 11th flr north up 2nd Ave tho. I can see the Vanderbilt tower, Chrysler Bldg, and Stuy Town to the East.
