Abstract:
A year after The Independent’s 1990 report on rental property conditions and the behavior of landlords in the Triangle Area, some progress has been made. Durham has created a Housing Appeals Board and a bill has passed the state House proposing housing reforms. Minimum standards still do not exist in Wake County or Durham County and proposals to create them have been slow or nonexistent. Low-income individuals and rural residents continue to suffer the most under current conditions.
