      Drug addiction. You can’t help those who don’t want to live a drug free life and work an honest legal job. Many choose the streets and drugs even when offered shelter and employment opportunities. I’ve lived in Oklahoma for 13 yrs and still do. I see it first hand.

      It’s not the landlords fault if cities put unfair expectations on them. The landlord may be someone who just owns a couple of houses and rents one out. It takes money to keep a house in good repair. New roof? New floor? Broken window? A/C, furnace, water heater and other appliances need service, repairs or replacement. The city doesn’t ante up that money. But they expect it to be painted, landscaped and new carpets/floors. Plus there’s property tax and insurance to consider. The owner might still have a mortgage to pay on the rental as well. Add it up.

    Since last year, my research into the problem has shown a few elements that Could be amended to help with this issue. The one that takes the biggest slice of the pie graph is inflation. The cheapeast place you can get in this city is 695 a month, all bills paid and anything below that is property of literal slum lords (west side mainly).
    I once had a member of the T.E.A (tulsa executive association) tell me with a straight face "Tulsa is not a city for people with entry level jobs" which is about the dumbest thing you can say

    Quit allowing big corporate hedges to come in and buy out the only homes that are affordable to for first time buyers.
    Housing is easily the biggest issue across America right now, not just Tulsas. The fact a handful of companies have a monopoly on rentals across America is beyond insane.

    I think the government need to investigate if those homeless are moving to Tulsa to create a homeless community from other states like immigrants crossing the borders. We in Oklahoma can be targeted for this movement before it gets worst like Seattle, SanFrancisco, L.A., Philly. I have noticed that there are more and more walking with shopping carts full of belongings. 😢😢😢😢 Crime will increase and high health risk for lack bathroom/cleanliness.😢 Trash everywhere will be a big problem.

    Most of the country is dealing with this issue now. Until America wakes the f-- up and realizes the affordable housing crisis affects EVERYONE and maybe we should not have such high housing prices nothing will be done. 3D home printing and other newer home building technologies are the answer. Flood the market with cheap homes people actually WANT to live in that are well built-charge no more than $150k for a 3/2 1500 sqft home-that would go a long way to help people secure their financial future and not end up on the streets. It's all over the country folks, and it's going to stay that way until laws change and affordable homes are available for EVERYONE-homes not based on people's income rather what people need for modern life. Nothing fancy, just good, solid homes like the ones from the 50s and 60s.
