Apartments are at close to 100% ocupancy, and rental houses are few and far between all over the Tri-Cities. Richland seems to hard hit especially because people want to live close to work, and most renters are here to work out at the Hanford area or at one of the associated business, all of which are located in Richland.

Word came today that the Richland Housing Authority’s Section 8 funding, provided by the federal government, is being pulled, as are the HUD-supplied vouchers.

What this can mean is detailed more here. The basic point is that money usually provided to the city of Richland to help house people, has been removed. That’s not good news.
