Seeing that @simsa04 is facing a potential housing crisis, I think I should update on the situation with my family in #SoCal.

Mom is still in need of care, but my sister has to work full-time and then help out after work. Thus, she’s too tired to do much looking—either for another school district to work in, or for another home to live in. Prices are still too high for her income. The landlords have given us an undetermined amount of time to find a replacement.

In the US, it is common to require every adult in the household to sign the lease. Mom refuses to leave the area, despite it being too costly to remain.
