Latest Cairo,NY news....Police chief arrested for..

No spam. Thanks! Thanks Chris. Just what this little messed up town needed. Isn't it bad enough that it is known as a drug town with it's junkies and dealers?! Also is the armpit ogf Greene county with it's high unemployment,lack of job opportunities,uneducated citizens just lounging in front of the tv on the government dole all day. How disgraceful. Tons of slumlords too as have reported. This used to be a nice area where tourists used to vacation in the day if you can even imagine it. You can't now as businesses don't even want to open their doors here as noone buys anything from them except drugs,cigarettes,liquor. Now if you wanted to open a pot stand and sell your plants in your yard,this would be the town for you! If you are looking to come some place to eat or vacation,skip Cairo is all can say. Even with new library,they took out a million dollar loan for with money didn't have and the new expensive hannaford coming,sorry but true. SOO glad to be gone from here as yeh used to exist here.

(Cairo,NY) Slumlords galore here in good ol' Cairo. town does nothing to stop them. know as usedto live here. If poor,need housing that is cheap and there's the rub and doesn't exist. All find is rundown dumps as area was touristy and is no more and alot of these places abound and area is poor as little work so people aRE DESPERATE AND TAKE THEM. TOWN LOOKS Other way as in officials as think not their problem but is as depreciartes property values. even with new library and hannaford being built is still full of welfare and people don't buy so doesn't attract new business. knoqw as have one and hard to sell bread here. other slumlords here or just plain illegal ones are:perry holst and his unweatherized properties by the park,morgan krause and his eyesores on grove st.,john cassaluchi on route 84 by oneill's a dump,eva's farm,new owners still a dump,lake elissa,a dump and she makes a side business keeping your security deposits.

got my new place...

Small 1 BR with no closets but all included for $740. a month in Albany and subsidized by HATAS,homeless traveler's aide, so my share is $ 213. a month. It is quite small but is better than motel and unweatherized dump was in before with Akama the slumlord of Cairo,NY,Greene county. Shame on you is all can sy to her for not putting me up in motel while she made repairs. Sh evicted me as know and supposedly had place fixed after I left which was disgraceful. She did me a favor as got out of cairo which is a very economically depressed and depressing area! thanks Akama for being so mean. .

Be inspired...

Looked at a closet yesterday..

No spam. Thanks! or rather a studio apt the size of a closetZ! It was 8 x 10'. Saw another just as bad with no stove even for 590,other was 540 with all included. DSS says have to takwe whatever can get at this point. Was like climbing a ladder on the steps too. One was on the 2nd and the other was on the 3rd floor and narrow too,hard. Tomorrow look at place on allan st in Albany that is suppposedly less money,500 and bigger. Wish me luck.

At motel in Albany..

No spam. Thanks! Still house or rather apt. hunting!

Evicted...

No spam. Thanks! Stuff thrown in yard that was left in place. Do hope friends were able to get before snow-damaged as tried to get out most things but no time and depended on kindness of others and their schedules sadly. Looking for housing still with little luck.

Homeless..

No spam. Thanks! Staying with friend in MA. temp. til fine something adequate. Wish me luck and let me know if hear of anything. COARC tried to ask for more time for me but she refused. She had said otherwise if they came aboard with section 8 and weatherization but since I think she is bipolar she changes her mind like the wind. Just look at past posts to see what I mean as never knew where was at til end. Had to move Friday in the pouring,rain,cold and mud and left alot behind and place was a mess as no time to clean as had to go stay with friend as couldn't afford to lay out first two weeks at motel.
