Finding Affordable Housing Options

Summary

To find affordable housing in Italy, consider contacting local legal aid organizations like Avvocato di Strada or ASGI for assistance with housing rights and emergency options. Explore job opportunities in sectors such as agriculture, hospitality, caregiving, and domestic help, which may offer accommodation. If local resources like Comune or Caritas are unresponsive, legal aid can provide guidance. For job searches, focus on roles that include housing benefits to alleviate accommodation costs.

****, here are a few options you can consider to find affordable housing:
- Look into local housing assistance programs or non-profits that offer rental assistance.
- Explore government-subsidized housing options like Section *.
- Consider shared housing or renting a room instead of a whole apartment.
Where are you currently located? This will help me provide more specific resources.
I already tried local housing but they don't chose anyone since there are a lot of people requests,I requested the government help yet they found me nothing yet and also I searched shared house for less payment but yet also those are quite expensive

I already contacted all of this and that's why I'm mad,I contacted Comune but they didn't respond to my multiple calls in different days and you can't go there without appointments so I made one long ago but it will be in the next year so it's too far.Also I did requested the Edilizia and they told me that they don't accept everyone's requests because there are a lot of people requests so it will be only a maybe and on top of that it's not that fast at all,even if I would've been accepted my request then I would've needed to wait an entire year to enter the house which I've been accepted into.Also caritas I've sent them an mail and I got no response yet so I really might call them
