What is your occupation? Retired   

Do you have housing at this time? Is your housing affordable, safe, and large enough for your and/or your family's needs? If not, please share what is lacking. Yes and yes                

What would you like to tell us about your experience with obtaining housing that you can comfortably afford (30% or less of income)? Income is not high, so need affordable housing. If I didn’t have, I’d have to move in with someone.                                                                                  

What has your experience taught you about homelessness and/or housing insecurity? God opens a door, take advantage. Its not easy. I’ve been homeless, and it was hard.  

What would you like the community to know? Keep people from being homeless. We need more affordable housing. There are a lot jobs, but they don't pay enough to afford rent. Thank God for opportunity and all the resources.
