Remember, "real nice apartments" are relative.  [b]What you would consider really nice vs. what someone in a lower income apartment would think is really nice is two different things.[/b]  This is something so many liberals struggle to understand.

As to the location, both Arlington Co. and Alexandria City provide newer updates "affordable housing" and public housing that is on par with market rate rental apartments in the area.

And again "plush life" is relative.  What you think of as a plush life is far different than what someone who grew up on welfare thinks of as a plush life. Just having $20 cash in your pocket money period can be seen as "plush"

I used to think like you and then I moved closer in and lived near this kind of housing and saw first hand day in and day out how it really plays out.  The previous poster is correct about romanticizing the poor.  The reality is these are people who are making choices based on the limited choices they have. They are making the choice that provides some income, some lifestyle that is right above scrapping by.  [/quote]
