If you could manage the rent for a small efficiency apartment on your own, this might work best for you. Or perhaps a professionally operated rooming house? It could help you immensely to be responsible for only yourself. Be careful about entering into any agreements to assist others when you don’t know their true circumstances. Look for housing from a company where you will have a written lease or rental agreement. If there is an agency within your city that could help find you housing within your financial means, that could be a good place to start. Best wishes~
