“I have seen over and over brand new Section 8 housing get turned into a trash heap in less than a year by the folks living there.”

Like you, I hate to say it....but can see no reason to be P.C. With bigger yards and greenery all many of them will see it as is more room to dump the garbage and more places to hide drugs and illegal activities. I learned long ago that when looking for a place to live, ask if they take Section 8 Vouchers. If they say yes, find a better place to rent.

Thanks for proving the point.

It is a self segregating program. In the end the Sec 8 tenants end up surrounded by other Sec 8 tenants. Then the slums are owned by individuals and not the govt.
