My community is a short walk away from downtown White Plains, hence why it has become the target of developers. Slowly, more and more community members are displaced and forced out of their homes into areas that are now charging double what they used to pay for rent in White Plains.
In my community, Hispanic corner stores can be found. During the summer months, members of my community gather at the Eastview Campus track to play soccer, take their kids out to ride their bikes, and to socialize amongst each other.
My community is made up of the Mexican and South American immigrant wave of the 90s, and a part of the African American community in White Plains. My community also includes first generation individuals, and we, along with the old time residents, are being affected by the incessant gentrification allowed by the City of White Plains.
My community is need of affordable housing and rent control regulations. Due to the limited amount of available section 8 and affordable housing apartments in White Plains, applicants are waiting up to years before they can get a space. Additionally, lack of laws in Westchester regarding rent have resulted in rent overcharges and landlord abuse.
