“Between the two of us a month, we get $1,440 in disability,” he said. “We can’t find a place for that.”

Curious, I browsed Seattle Craigslist and found a few RV spaces in the $300s monthly; one in Arlington is $295. A 55+ apartment in Prosser is $307. A 420-friendly apartment in Tumwater ("private entry shared bath and kitchen. No deposit background or credit check.") is $400. Yes, Prosser is in eastern Washington and the other two places are about an hour from downtown Seattle, but they all have running water, toilets, and electricity. And the couple would have $1000/mo. left over from the disability checks.
