Detroit is not known as a big-money town, although there are wealthy people who live there. Many of the residents of the city are blue collar, though, and with the recent economic problems a lot of them are struggling. Some have lost their jobs and been forced to take others that don't pay as well - if they can find them. Other people have lost their homes to foreclosure.
There have been quite a few people who have experienced both. No matter what happened to put you in your current financial situation, if you're struggling to pay bills and your rent and utilities are eating up most of what you make, you might be able to get some help. Not every person who has a low income wants to stay there, and some people - like the elderly on fixed incomes - are aware that they really don't have all that much of a choice. There is certainly no shame in living in a low income apartment, however. They have been providing people of all kinds with decent, safe, clean places to live for a very long time.
For people who haven't lived in one of the low income apartments before, the process is relatively simple. You have to meet income requirements, and you can't make too much money. You also can't be unemployed or have no income at all, because you are required to pay a portion of your rent and utilities. You can't do that with no income, and most people who are interested in low income apartments don't have money in the bank that they can rely on.
If you meet the guidelines for income, though, you can apply to live in a subsidized apartment where you will pay approximately thirty percent of your monthly income in rent and utilities and the rest will be paid for you. People who do this can start to pay off some of their other debt, they can buy food and clothing, and they can save money to put a down payment on a house and finally stop renting if that's what their goal is. They could also use it to go back to school or do countless other things.
