text: i'm broke and moveing back to california with my son? i'm moving back to california in the fresno area. i don't have any money and neather does my husband who is already there. where should i look for a place for about 400 a month or at the most 500 and please don't tell me not to move back. i"m trusting that god will make a way if its ment to be. http://www.hafresno.org/ http://www.hafresno.org/default_sub.asp?page=rental_main  you can apply to affordable housing programs offered by the fresno housing authority (or your husband who is already there could register for your family.)  with a section 8 voucher, you would pick the apartment you want, ask the landlord to register with the housing authority, if he hasn't already. (the authority has currently registered over 8000 apartments) if his apartment passes their guidelines, the rent you would pay is 30% of your adjusted gross income.  the authority pays the rest of the rent to the landlord for you.   also, i did a search:  fresno ca rent 400    one of the sites was craigslist.  the listings on this page are mostly people looking for roommates, but a few seem to be apartments and houses.  it might be worth contacting the lady who wants someone to take over her lease.  she says she will pay the first month for you.  http://fresno.craigslist.org/roo/?displaymode=printfriendly
