I don't see the Bocacrats rolling over on this. Folks from the NE, for all of their liberalism, fight tooth and nail against "low income housing" in their neighborhoods. Google "Mario Cuomo" and "Forest Hills" and you will see my point.
Nevertheless, a friend of mine who grew up in the city of North Miami told me how, after the Liberty City riots, the feds gave section 8 vouchers to the folks displaced by their own rioting. They soon turned every apartment complex in North Miami into the ghetto they left behind. It was only a matter of time before North Miami became just as bad as Liberty City or Overtown. See also East Orange and Irvington, NJ for the same phenomenon 14 years earlier.
Lower middle class nabes are usually the most likely to "turn." In other words, I would expect Margate, Deerfield Beach, Lantana, to go to the sh-thouse before Boca would.
THanks..... So detcahed houses not so likely?
In any event, although the housing agency is located in Boca, it's not as if this is for housing only in Boca. The condition for these section 8 vouchers is that the recipients live somewhere -- anywhere -- in Palm Beach County for a year. Then they can live anywhere they want inside or outside of the county (as long as they find a landlord willing to take the voucher).
