Section 8 housing paying some $1629 a month for a three bedroom house is ridiculous. Someone working a full time job of 40 hours a week at $10 an hour would only clear roughly $1100 a month.
Who pays $10 an hour in the Pahoa Hilo area?
Does Ruderman's Island naturals or Malama pay $10 an hour?
Anyway, One parent would have to work two full time jobs or both parents work one full time job to compete with section 8 housing benefits. With the cost of child care these days I just don't know how some can pay rent or compete with section 8 when most jobs are paying minimum wage in the Puna area.
