      User Response: Yes and it’s come a long way from when I was a kid. 10-15 yrs ago this area was the slum of the slums of Lewiston but in those yrs the city has obviously put much time money and labor into turning this neighborhood around! Currently this area isn’t just a bunch of run down apartment buildings standing back to back and side to side of each other anymore, it’s a lovely place to take a stroll in the beautiful park and while your at it you can basketball or roll around the skate park that’s located on the outskirts of the park. In the summer time all the kids look forward to the friendly police officers coming out and turning the water on so the they can run and cool off in the local sprinkler also located in the park. The city of Lewiston has worked hard to brighten the city up by adding color to unconventional urban spaces and city equipment such as trash cans and sides of buildings. The police department has been working out of their station for years at the same building in the same neighborhood as the park and all kinds of newly built structures that are currently being used for low income and subsidized housing facilities.

Apartment Checklist
Check For Waiting Lists
Most apartments have waiting lists. Search early and do not just settle on one apartment choice.

Contact Your Local Housing Authority
Housing authorities have many opportunities. Many do have closed waiting lists, but they may be able to provide other public housing resources.

Check The Federal Poverty Sliding Scale Guidelines
Check to see if you qualify for low cost or free housing by comparing the guidelines to your income records.
