I'm not rich by any measure but I know the kind of people who receive social housing. Not saying they are all problematic but many of them are, and one bad neighbour is enough to make your life hell.
I agree with you, all the neighborhoods with social housing have thrash laying around, more crime (or general unsafe feeling)
I know because I was living in the middle of it all in social housing. The problematic people live there their whole life, making their behavior the standard.
You don’t know the kind of people who receive social housing, and it shows.
I do, because I live surrounded by social housing blocks. And just last week they were lighting a campfire inside their building. After many years you can't imagine the things I've seen. Maybe it's you who doesn't know the kind of people who receive social housing.
