There is public housing in NYC, and I can assure you that your landlord is better than NYCHA.

The article I shared in my first comment in this chain addresses problems in NYC and compares that to Vienna and Singapore, which are much better. So please take a look if you would like to learn about alternatives.

I actually know already about Vienna and Singapore. I have zero confidence we can copy that model here. Every time we've tried to do public housing it's been a disaster. At some point it's just who we are. If I keep striking out, it's no use to tell me to look to Mike Trout for an example of what's possible. I'm not Mike Trout. I will never be Mike Trout. I will never achieve what Mike Trout has achieved. If we're talking about my batting average, then Mike Trout's success is irrelevant. I need an approach at the plate that accounts for my skills and limitations.
