"Madison, WI, their delightful city, sports average rents (1 BR) of $900, and very low vacancy rates. In the meantime, hoping to get into a family shelter is futile. The 4-month wait lists now will only get worse as winter approaches. Record numbers of homeless families have slammed the fragile system. The alternative, motels, is another vexing problem because the rates, as the Good Samaritan discovered, were in the $600-900 a week range. So you have no affordable housing. No emergency shelter. Expensive motels. Where do families end up when they hit these formidable obstacles?"
