I don't see my opportunities that assist seniors in this area. There is a community center right down the street but it's resourses appear to be limited. Also, I live in an affordable housing complex and my rent is unbelievable. Along with the high rent we are charged for sewer and water which doubled from last year. I have to work in order to survive.
