People living in recreational vehicles, trucks and trailers along Webster Avenue in the Bronx say unaffordable rents have left them without conventional housing, according to a New York Post report published Tuesday.
Residents described difficulties finding affordable apartments, alongside concerns about shelter safety and restrictions involving pets. Some are working while waiting for permanent housing.
Neighbors, meanwhile, have raised concerns about the concentration of vehicles and its effect on the area. The report highlights the competing pressures facing people seeking somewhere to live and the surrounding community.
