It's a smidge simpler when you've got a friend who owns multiple properties around the city but -- I certainly don't intend to lean upon Howard Stark's charity forever.

[ oh, she might as well indulge sam at least a little bit. ] But it's tough to find a good spot without solid references. My last landlady was rather taken aback when she watched me get perp-walked out of her lodging house.

Yeah, I can see where potential landlords might hold that kinda thing against you in pretty much any decent neighborhood.

[Maybe not where and when he grew up, but that doesn't fall under the category of "decent neighborhoods".]

Though these days, you pretty much have to murder someone to get an affordable room in the city to begin with. So the key is not getting caught when you commit your crimes.

So I've been told. [ by more than one person, too. it seems as though rent-prices in the future are a topic of considerable importance, for how often they're mentioned. gentrification is an evil she's begun to learn about in earnest. ]
