I'm going to guess your parents bought that 3 bedroom home themselves, as opposed to “renting it” via a government subsidy.

I don't know if you are knowingly erecting a strawman argument, or just truly have no clue what actually goes on in low-mid priced apartments, rental houses, and mobile home communities throughout the USA.

The best ones do not allow any “Section 8” tenants.
The second tier allow some,(usually mandated by local laws) but run the complexes with an iron fist, harsher than any report you have ever read about any nasty, power drunk, home owners associations.

And next you have all the rest of them. Basically garden variety slumlords, where the owners own personal criminal proclivities determine just how truly dangerous the place will be to live within.
Our government loves “them” as the very best of all!
The number of police calls,emergency medical calls, evictions, intensive social services supervisions and general problems justify a huge number of government bureaucrats and marginally qualified civil service personnel gainfully employed.

I’m livid they turned over a couple homes a block from me to section #8. Had problems with those who move in and out ever since.

My son lived in a beautiful middle class cul de sac outside the city, a family sold their home to section #8 despite all the neighbors begging them not to..

Within one year my son moved his family as did most of the rest of the neighbors once there...the whole place went down hill.

Excuse me. Mine is the truth. That is how we were raised.
The problem is the forced section 8 not the size of the real family.

I’m familiar with section 8. It’s one of the reasons that I moved my family from my first house.
