I live with my parents since I do not have a job and am not in a right state of mind to be living out in some shady place on housing benefits (been there tried that). I hope to find a job starting from December and move out next year if all goes, to plan. I do contribute a bit towards the rent and buy my own food.
Rent where I live for a studio in a bad area is $1000 a month on average and the waiting list for government housing has been closed for years. I lived on my own until a head injury, and now sz, I live with my mom.
I live on my own but it’s only because it’s a government subsidized apartment.
I chalk my luck up to my area. This is a great city to live in if you have a disability or mi.
With my part-time job and SSDI I can afford to live in a small apartment. I can’t figure out this neighborhood. The next door neighbor called it a ghetto but it doesn’t seem that bad to me.
Though from the looks of many of the people walking around I would never be friends with them. But hell, I haven’t seen any crime. No one has touched my car or me in three years.
No I’m dependant on my husband as I don’t have a job or enough money. If it weren’t for him I’d be homeless - unless I live with my parents or sister, who are all financially struggling
I wish I was more independent!
That’s kind of how I feel about where I live. The guy behind me is disabled too. Everything is pretty cheap where o live too. Like, even food. I pay $.99 for a gallon on milk, $.99 for a dozen jumbo eggs. Housing is cheap/my handyman is more than reasonable imo.
What do you like so much about where you live? Why is it good for disabled or MI?
My apartment is one full bedroom for $600 a month including utilities, I have a tight SSDI budget but I make it work with proper resources, Im still poor but I make it work for me
I can’t afford to live on my own, but I haven’t tried any government subsidized housing yet so that may be an option. I do pay some rent to live with my folks, and I try to budget as if I were living on my own. I am very frugal.
Hi Mike. My city is good for the mi because there’s a lot of agencies and state funding here to help schizophrenics get back on their feet.
A lot of the youth are very educated about mi, too.
Our police force even has mental health training.
Like your city housing and food is very well priced here, too.
