Affordable housing crisis clenches Hillsborough County

Start showing up to these meetings, we have to stop letting rich politicians get away with putting us in debt to their rich donors.

The price of EVERYTHING has gone up since this horrible administration took over. They want to eliminate the middle class and it's working.

Do not disperse the funds. The hope fund was very specific, see it to the end. Do the best. Repair work for roads and infrastructure it's only fun for many many years and decades that comes from the tax money earmarked especially for that. How that has been wasted is another subject.

Why is the rent so high? Fixing the roads so panhandlers can have a nice street to ask for money in? Public safety so cops can just drive on? Just lower the dang rent. This is population control. Then if you don’t wanna deal with the stress and have a crisis they wanna put you in psychiatric hospitals. I saw people at hospitals depressed because of not having enough money.

So you can’t off yourself, but you’ll have beautiful roads and plenty of overweight cops who don’t give a crap. Just take us out already cause this is is some bull

Linnie Supall is BEAUTIFUL 🕊

And the rich get richer. Why is ANYone surprised?

The latest trend? Wtf its price gouging!

@true6766 No one could have said it better .Thank you G.bless.

Vote Trump 2024 to end the high inflation and high gas prices

Yes fix the roads ,so we can have nice roads to sleep on ,and get us killed . IMO everything is addressed here in Fla except higher wages , and lower affordable apartments, houses .Of course these government officials don't have a problem, they have plenty of money ,nice homes ,lots of food to eat ,so to heck with the poor struggling pple here. WHOM OF some don't even have a car to sleep in . It's always the rich get richer and the poor gets poorer . But my Bible states ,that he that oppressed the poor ,shall come to naught .But as my grandma always said today is my day ,tomorrow is yours . We all have our day ,just a thought to remember . When our day comes to leave this world none of their riches can be taken when them. 🙏 for all the struggling folks.

when are you idiots going to understand you are asking for affordable housing from people that live in million dollar high rises on bayshore they have no idea of affordable elect people that come from the middle class working class that are not rich prigs

Here's what they do. We will build affordable housing. They build these homes. Then charge crazy rates in these SO-CALLED AFFORDABLE HOMES! Remember before covid and I believe still to this day. Miami teachers can't even educate the kids properly due to trying to afford their own home or apartment. That's crazy to me. So if I'm a student! You telling me my teacher is homeless just like the majority of the less fortunate 😢😢 aka paycheck to paycheck. Barely making ends meet. I've stayed in the same place over ten years. Because the newer buildings and homes. They want 2800 a month. The apartments are for 600 square feet lmao they asking for 1750 lmao 🤣 😢😂😢😂😢 and upset on the inside. I literally found a nicer place but couldn't get it. Because I made too much. They select based on income. 😢. So basically to have a nice place I have to make 20,000 a year at most 30,000. And if I get a raise anywhere in between. I could lose the place lmao 🤣 this is weird and crazy. I don't understand rent or mortgage being sky high but getting nothing worth the rent being that high. It use to be. If you wanted already furnished home. It was one set price. A basic home was the cheapest way to go. Now doesn't matter. Brand new building and 1496 yr home cost the same lol. FYI being sarcastic. Basically, a hurricane away from being destroyed home costs the same as brand new homes generally speaking.

Tampa government failure

It takes $3000-6000 to move into rentals you wouldn't put your dogs in. It's rediculous to pay, 1st, last months rent with an equal deposit amount. The minimum wage working people cant afford that, they can hardly afford to pay bills..
What can singles or seniors do?
For too many years women live off the system with kids..having one baby after another, knowing they will have insurance, food stamps, wic..free college…so there's not enough to help.those others who don't abuse the system.
I've seen too many senior females homeless on the streets…not druggies, just homeless..that's just not acceptable …pathetic
More & more people are living in their vehicles, bathing the best way they can.
You people with the government power, or personal financial means to help do better, had start doing that..or many of you will find yourself in the same boat one day…or you will finally one day,split hell wide open while your falling in like a sinkhole opened up and swallowed your greedy gut self.
Money & position won't help you one bit that day!

It’s crazy… it’s hard for everyone… all my life I wanted to hit that 100k mark.. I hit over 200k a year and it’s like making 80k 6 years ago.. taxed to hell and bring home 150k a year after taxes and spending 33k a year on a home that 6 years ago would have been around 1500 to rent a month.. now it’s 2800. I can’t imagine what it’s like for other people right now.. time to speak up
