  • I understand your point but I also live near low income housing and volunteer at another place closer to the downtown area. Certainly some of the buildings are rougher than others (I work near one directly downtown that is rough) but the other two you can hardly tell they’re low income. There are plenty others I’ve seen that you honestly wouldn’t know are supportive housing unless you went in/knew someone that lived there. There’s one near my parents house that people were freaking out about before it got built and after 5 years it honestly hasn’t made a change in the neighbourhood at all.

    I don’t know the answer either, but I think making a judgement that all low income housing attracts only people struggling with drug addiction or mental health is not quite right either.
