Affordable housing is too expensive for many in San Francisco, leaving people in untenable living situations: rentals they can’t afford, overcrowded single room occupancy hotels, or tents on the street. Proposition G tries to combat that issue by proposing the creation of a fund to subsidize 550 to 600 units of affordable housing for extremely low income seniors, people with disabilities and families in San Francisco. We speak with an older adult about her precarious housing situation, as well as local organizations that work with vulnerable populations to understand why affordable housing is so costly in the first place, and how this measure would affect groups living on fixed incomes if it passes. Check out our nonpartisan election guide.
