120,000 NYC Students Are Homeless… Why?

[@albertocabrera6614]

I went to school in NYC in the early 90s. I was homeless for a few semesters and it was not just me, there were a lot of students going to school, part time jobs, then library to study or the school's studios. Then end their day at a shelter or a park. This issue is not new, it's just worse now.

Sometimes, being home is worse. Kids whose only meal of the day is the school lunch. Unbathed, clothes that haven't been changed in weeks, negligence, abuse, the horror stories I have heard from teachers makes me wish you have to prove competency in order to have kids. Seriously. Far too many parents in this world should not be allowed anywhere near children. Ask any teacher, your jaw will drop with the conditions some of these children are forced to live in.

I’m in Ohio and the housing market here over the last 7-8 years is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Homes that were bought for $130K in 2015 are now being sold for $590k. I’m talking about tiny, disgusting, poorly built 950 square foot shit boxes in quite mediocre neighborhoods. Then you’ve got Better, average sized homes in nicer neighborhoods that were $300K+ 10 years ago selling for $750k+ now. Wild times.

On the contrary, even if you’re not skilled, it is still possible to hire one. I am a project manager and my personal portfolio of approximately $750k took a big hit in April due to the crash.

This happened to my mom while she was raising my sister and I in Brooklyn. She had a good job with pension etc and we went through hell during the early 2000’s. We were constantly moving and jumping, we got scammed , slept in our car during one of the biggest snowstorms NYC had, my sister and me were struggling in school to keep up and there were no resources then to help us, I can only imagine how it is now. I’ve never seen my mom so stressed and worried everyday after teaching all day. I would never forget it and she did it with a damn smile when she was falling apart but had to hold it together for her children. Eventually we moved to NJ and sorta made it out but this homeless pandemic has been brewing for the last 20 years and no one can help or doesn’t know how to start. I was born and raised in NYC…. If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere!

Thank you Cash for bringing this up to the forefront. We become so focused on the migrant situations and forget about others born and raised here. I feel really bad to know that there are young college students who have the need for housing and are becoming homeless themselves. Its terrible that we can find extra money to shelter others but can't help our own. Sometimes I wish I could help out a student with his/ her need for shelter but I want a guarantee that they would respect me or when its time to leave they dont try to over stay and put me out of my own house.

[@Yungjo20]

Cash….excellent work. As a nyc teacher, it is really unfortunate that the city is cutting funds on education. I teach special education and they are coming for us the hardest. The problem is that the city isn’t really prioritizing the students safety and education. They are prioritizing politics and you should never mix politics with education because the kids truly suffer from it.

[@LevinHua]

[@bkm2797]

One side is much worse than the other, the RepubliCons want less always for education, if they could they would remove all programs, especially for special education, so please keep that in mind when you vote.

Unfortunately education is political. It involves other peoples tax dollars. So that immediately makes it political since it’s paid from the political system. If you don’t want education political, homeschooling is really the only option. I’m not saying he problems don’t exist but education is definitely political and as long as it’s paid for from taxes, it’s always will be!

The homeless issues in NY are not new. The sudden influx of immigrants has made the very limited resources problem worse. It amazes me that the new arrivals are refusing accommodations because the accommodations don't meet their standards. Homeless New Yorkers have been dealing with adverse situations for a long time. Early in my social service career, I worked up close and personal with some of New York's homeless population. Those individuals had a tough time with getting their children to and from school. The City provided carfare for them to do it and the parents saw to it that their children made it to school. Oftentimes times those families had to uproot their children and move to different accommodations that were not near the child's school but they persevered and put in the work to make it work. I don't know the solution to the predicament that New York finds itself in but, the influx of people arriving in New York has put a tremendous strain on an already fragile situation. Quite frankly, living accommodations and resources have been depleted.

They are full with people that are not here legally. There used to be a small safety net for people that is no longer available. I know an elderly couple, the wife normally paid the bills, she got sick and her elderly husband took care of her. Their homeowners insurance lapsed by 45 days and they had a fire. The wait for housing assistance was over 2 years. The people who paid taxes for decades have no safety net.

Cash, I love your channel. Living in NYC is so overrated. Having a mailing address that says New York, NY might be a status symbol, but the sacrifice to maintain that residency and lifestyle in the long term is not suitable for so many people.

They will eventually be burned to the ground and new systems created by our grandchildren and their progeny, which will be more efficient and better for all. Unfortunately, it's going to be painful until that time comes.

The old timers say that NYC has been corrupt since before Koch was mayor....they say they don't see it changing. I tend to agree with them.

The thing that puzzles me is, there can't be THAT many people who can afford a $5000 a month apartment. Where are these realtors even finding tenants that well off? And if they do exist, what are they all doing for a living? It does beg to wonder...

[@X3nophiliac]

realtors would rather keep apartments rent high, keep their property valuation high and have that one in a million person rent out their property. also these renters all talk to each other and rent at the same rate so local renters dont have a choice in the price for similar apartments

[@Europa1749]

bunk beds, four to a room

[@sherlyn.a]

Most apartments don’t cost $5000 unless you live in certain areas or Manhattan. More areas are getting gentrified, but there *are* affordable places-relatively, for under $2k. This is doable if you’re earning two incomes. If you work minimum wage, at $15 an hour working 10 hours a day, you’d make $750 a week. Minus 10% off your paycheck, that’s $2,700 a month. If you’re single with kids…it’ll be rough for you. But it is doable for two parents. Also, if you’re earning that little, you’ll get Medicaid, so you don’t have to worry about healthcare. You will also get food stamps (which is adjusted for number of family members), so you won’t starve…completely. NYC is very unaffordable, but it’s not impossible. Many low income families are able to live there just fine. And if you’re savvy, over time it’s doable to find opportunities. It’ll take a long time, but it is possible to, for example, get an education (CUNY has many programs that’ll render your tuition almost completely free if you are low-income). As far as your children go, I can’t imagine being a homeless student, but as far as opportunities go, NYC public schools have the most resources, programs, and connections that any low-income family will have. If you are a serious parents and you take care of kids, you can make sure that they get into good public schools (even some of the best in the country if your kids are good enough, since enrollment in NYC is mostly not dependent on where you live. You can apply anywhere). If I were to grow up poor, I would choose to live in NYC. I know from experience, and I don’t think I would have gotten anywhere close to where I am now if I grow up in a rural area, or basically anywhere else in the country. You don’t realize it until you experience it. However, I guess the point is that in the scenario above, you’d need very engaged parents and specific type of children to succeed. For the average family, this isn’t the case. I would say, it might be harder and have lower chances of success, but the margin of succcess is magnitudes larger than it would be in other places.

[@megmaravillas]

[@greerjones9791]

I thought about the commute from and to Floyd Bennet Field and the idle time in between trips. I know that the City of New York is also struggling with staffing shortages due to the ravages of C-19 and attrition but, perhaps the powers that be could set up some type of program(s) to take advantage of the idle time between trips and assist the parents in taking small steps to remove the barriers that are preventing them from achieving eventual self-sufficiency. It could be something as small as ESL classes so that they can take the next step. Their issues are not going to be resolved overnight but they have to put in the work.

Thanks Cash, excellent informative video. I often wonder how people who don't have a high paying corporate job are able to love in New York. I'm pretty sure fast food workers, cashiers, shelf stockers, receptionists, nurse's aids etc don't make $100,000 a year. How do they live and pay for housing, transportation and so on. Would be great if you could make a video to shed more light on this and why people who are working those kind of jobs actually stay in New York. Having family there can't be the only reason. I am also imagining that these essential but low paid workers don't really have any money left over to participate in all that New York has to offer. So why stay?

Good assessment of school kids who are homeless in NYC. The $5,600 average rent is outrageous. An equation of low rental stocks and high demand with social welfare programs that don’t meet kids needs. The child tax credit that ended during the pandemic went far in helping families and kids. We need money for wars and don’t have an equitable tax system for extreme wealth. I was a volunteer and grant writer for a suburban homeless shelter several years ago and during my tenure, we never got to providing transition housing for families.

Our systems cannot handle even more people coming when they can't even handle the people who are already here. So many people lost their housing as a result of the pandemic and they along with those who were already homeless need to be helped. The systems also need to focus on preventing homelessness by helping people maintain their housing because once someone loses their housing it becomes a much more complex problem and more expensive to get housing starting not even from scratch but from less than nothing.
