Apartment building are out of control
Worcester is insane, there are so many housing projects coming up the problem is that only few units are intended for affordable housing. Meanwhile Worcester is giving the house away in tax incentives, grants, etc. Just as they did with the ball park. There is no purpose in creating housing when a studio or one bedroom apartment is going for $1,800-$2,000. We are displacing our residents and bringing in people that is escaping Boston rents. The city needs to be more aggressive in requesting more units for affordable housing. There are not enough units for the elderly in fixed income. Our children are not going to be able to afford rent after 18. They will have to leave with another 7 roommates in order to make ends meet. Let’s apply some common sense and let’s actually think Commonwealth.
