Adequate housing for poor
people has always been a
problem in this country. The
city of Winston Salem is no
exception. During the summer
efforts have been made to
upgrade low income housing
in the twin city.

" ^ Etophia King
Man
'oor Have A
Street" asked city residents if
they felt low income housing
here was adequate.
Here are some of their
responses.
Joseph Rice commented,
"with the improvements the
city has begun to make I think
it is adequate. I have no
complaints about it now. In
the past there was a lack of
nants and the housing
authority but now with regular
meetings and block captains
this has been rectified."
Etopia King replied, "it is
supposed to be adequate but
the people who run them have
no respect for the tenants,
when they make improvements
they feel they are doing
you a favor. The projects are
too old. New housing needs to
be built." .

Debra Hill remarked, "I
feel the housing is adequate.
The recent improvements
have helped a great deal but
low income housing here is too
crowded^ There needs to be '
more housing built for low
income people."
Edward Walters stated,

low income housing here is
very old and shabby. Some of
the old projects need to be
rebuilt in a less crowded
area."
Alice Carpenter responded,
"It may be adequate but just
barely. If some new housing is
not built soon the existing
ones will become slums. Also
the maintenance of low
income housing is very poor.

_ There was disagreement
among the interviewees on the
question. Some felt the
housing adequate, others not,
but most felt that there s a
definite need for more low
income housing in the city.
