None of the housing is subsidized.  it is all privately developed with private money.  Some of the units (usually 10%) in some projects are set aside to rent or sell for below market rates because the private developers get Federal and city tax breaks if the do so but no direct subsidy to resident...these ar not section 8 places WIX.  My problem is even at the reduced rates they are too rich for my blood...Thank God I bought into the neighborhood in 1980 because I couldn't afford it now.  The market rate units are selling for $350 to $500 per SF or renting for $2.00 per SF up.

To the extent they have kids they mostly go the oublic schools.  The 3 elementary schools serving the hottest areas (Morningside, Mary Lin, and Springdale elementary) are overcrowded because of the influx and all 3 are either being expanded or have expansions planned.  A middle school (Inman) is being renovated and converted to an elementary school as soon as the new middle now under construction is completed.

We ain't talking Birmingham here WIX!
