Why didn't she go to a hotel apartment?



There are a good number of these around here, at least. You rent by the week for a reasonable rate.
Also, couldn't she have rented an efficiency?

I think she was trying to find anything for 225 a month, but then she got fired and they didn't have any money.

But I'm talking about before she got fired. She kept saying she couldn't afford an apartment.
Back in the '80s, even today in some places, she could have afforded an efficiency apartment.

You have to have first, last, & security deposit to rent a apartment most of the time. Basically the rent times 3. She didn't have any money.

But these are basically hotel rooms that you rent by the month. I think the rules are a little more relaxed.
You likely need some sort of deposit, but she may have been able to swing this later on.
