- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- Many of NYC residents are displaced due to gentrification as well as a plummeting economy. A studio apt is currently $1400 monthly. You are required to make 40 x the rent on a minimum wage salary and to add to that limited housing resources are both not accessible and are not being equitability distributed amongst the NYC population.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- In NYC, the rise and continuance of displace individuals is creating an increase in both gentrification and individuals considered impoverished. In order to combat this by reinstating rent controlled apartment and to decrease the rent income requirements in affordable housing. By adjusting the allocation of money, housing authorities will be able to still profit from rent, but you will also be able to potentially build newer housing developments that can provide equitable housing.
