File complaints with the city (LCI). You have to wait 21 days before filing a complaint with the court. The housing inspectors in New Haven are a useless crop, and their management is even worse, but you must have the documentation to actually force action via the courts. Good luck. My experience in this town has been nothing short of a nightmare.

Ugh…thanks so much for the direction.

I wish I had better experiences to report. I can give you Justin Elicker's cell number. Not that it did me any good.

LCI used to be a little better.

What do you hate about NC?

It's a terrible place to work. Low wages, toxic and abusive employers, zero labor laws to protect employees.

I left NC for an identical job in CT. My base salary went up over 50%, my workload reduced 20%, and I have a Union that has already proven their chops to stop attempts at management from screwing employees.

It's a beautiful state, with very small minded people. If you aren't a hetero, cis white male conservative Christian - WASPs only (and no, Catholics aren't Christians by their standards), you are an outsider and will be treated as such.

Many, many people that I have seen move from other areas to NC ended up leaving after some time because it just doesn't fit their cultural/worldviews.

That’s the answer I’m looking for. Thank you and sorry you had to experience that!
