Tammy Antunes and her husband face ongoing challenges in finding affordable housing in New Jersey, despite the state's efforts to build over 400,000 affordable units. Their combined income of $80,000 leaves them seeking options within their budget of $1,500 to $1,700 monthly, yet after two years of applications, they remain unsuccessful. Housing advocates highlight the confusion and long wait times in the system, exacerbated by the rapidly increasing demand. Many urge lawmakers to improve the housing application process and provide centralized information access for applicants.
"I feel very frustrated, we're trying to build a family."
