There’s religious people in other countries? Who would have known

I work in social services and can confirm this. Another aspect is that a lot of realtors dont want to work with people who already live in their own apartments because the city offers a lower amount of money for the brokers fee. A lot of brokers who deal with clients want people from SROs or shelters because the city offers a full brokers fee payment.

Please this is the point you’re gonna make? As there arent a million other ways the city wastes money, healthcare for retired workers is whats’s eating all the funding? Thats why people go to work for the city. If the city didn’t offer this those parks would be even worse. You sound like a moron

I work in DSS for the city. The congregates vary in quality but the biggest reason people dont want to stay there is because the residents are restricted to the amounts of guests they can bring in and they have to work with social workers who usually try to get them drug rehab help. If you’re a social butterfly and dont want someone bothering you everytime you go into meth induced psychosis in the hallway then you wont want to live in a congregate supportive housing.

Shelters arent the only place people are getting put into. Many homeless are put in SROs which give a person a private studio room with a shared bathroom/kitchen facilities.

While it’s a step in the right direction, it being NYC it’s not going to go well. I’m predicting that they’ll pass this without any plan for drug treatment or saf einjection sites and the streets are going to be even more flooded with drug addicts

The hotels that were turned into sros were already at crackhouse levels before they started to get converted.

Thats true but religious people still exist so obviously its not surprising that there are religious parts of a country. Also i wouldn’t call europe with a broad stroke as eastern and Southern Europe are quite religous and muslim immigrants aren’t abandoning their religion upon entering a european country.
