Living with nuns: Priced out of D.C., young women found low rent with unlikely roommates

Young women in Washington, D.C., have long benefited from a Catholic-run home providing affordable housing for a decade, allowing them to focus on education and careers without the burden of sky-high rents. However, as the community prepares to close its doors, it highlights the growing struggle for affordable housing in the nation's capital. This shift underscores the increasing difficulty for young professionals and students to find reasonable living arrangements, emphasizing the need for innovative solutions to address the housing crisis in urban areas. The closure of this community marks a significant loss for those who relied on it for stability and support.
