I’m homeless with an 18.50 an hour job and cannot find a room/roommate anywhere. I work in the Burlington area. I’m on the verge of quitting my job and relocating somewhere else because I can’t live my life.
I don’t bother with Facebook anymore, most of the time people are spotty with replies. Craigslist is hit or miss.

Not sure if you voted for it back in the day, but people did. Just like the Obamacare stuff. I think now most people realize what a joke it was.

You can blame all the idiots here in massachusetts back in 2007 that voted for this crap under Romney. Like most things in MA, people are asleep at the wheel.

The housing problem is beyond severe. It’s almost a lost cause. Blame the politicians here, and the idiots that keep them in office and the wealthy nimby folks that care about poverty until it shows up on their lawn.

Everyone acts surprised this is happening…..what do you expect? The people in power here are not doing the job. Wu, and now healey, ARE the problem.

I sleep in a car, so the less snow the better. I’m homeless because there’s no housing in eastern MA.

Reply to What gives, landlords?? by Ecofolux2427
I’ve had people turn me down for the same reasons even just to rent a room. I’ve even been turned down because of the distance to my job. I really don’t have an answer for it, I think it’s something in the water.

Reply to Where to get cheap car by Impressive_Row_563
For that price, expect issues, unless it’s a hand me down from someone you know. Watch out for “title jumping”, which is RAMPANT here. I don’t remember the last time I found a car in MA from Facebook that the sketchy dude selling it wasn’t title jumping.
