Single Mom in a 1 bedroom.

I support renter's rights and wish for more affordable housing IN THIS AREA. It's difficult to explain what poverty is to a 6 year old. So i don't, instead i teach her that the best things in life don't cost money. But in all actuality of our life, I am barely making a work on my wage. So With food costs and gas costs and daycare and then RENT everything increasing but my wage. My rent increased by 75 dollars and now i am holding on to a razors edge. I would love to beable to live in a home where my daughter can have her own room. I work hard. I pay my taxes. I am an essential worker in healthcare, I went to college, and all i want is that my daughter to have a better future. IF that means living in a 1 bedroom that keeps us in the Lake Washington School District, so be it.

I cannot find any appartments in the bellevue and kirkland redmond Issaquah renton snohomish bothell woodenville area with 2 bedrooms in my ability to pay range. I am scared i will be homeless this time next year. I just want something that i can afford. I dont want a handout. I just dont want my daughter to have to sleep in the living room when shes a teenager. That would be nice. I want a normal life for her. I came here for a reason the schools and resources to help my child. If i were to have to move, i would not have any money for the move in costs. I already live paycheck to paycheck. I lay awake at night worried. Everyday and every night.
