Many don’t want to return to N.O. subsidized housing
NEW ORLEANS — Seven out of 10 public housing residents displaced by Hurricane Katrina want to return to the city, but only a third want to go back to subsidized homes, according to a study released Thursday.
Sounds good, right? Well,
•37% of public housing households want to return to New Orleans but want Housing Choice Voucher (Section [Eight]) rental assistance for a home in the private market instead of public housing.
In other words, they’re rejecting the bread and asking for cake.
