I’m almost scared to post this but — have you been in / around public housing in the US? (Genuine not rhetorical)

It’s not uncommon for it to be unsafe and destroyed.

That’s the reasoning for my question. Just last night I was reading about a local homeless man who was scared to go to the local shelter and had things stolen when he had.

But I also wanted to ask the OP (who mentioned housing as a right) how that could be avoided.
