Hello Jacob, When the houses became available, did they rent? That is, did people dig into their own pocket for money they had earned and pay the rent rate that was established? Or did houses sit empty until rates were lowered (supply & demand)? Of course none of this matters if the rent was just government passing money from one pocket to the next. They set a rent rate and then passed out money to the locals to pay the rent rate. Take care, Eric

OT: I worked for several years for the government, in a village on the northwest coast of Alaska. Yeah.. I can believe that story. I lived 16 miles outside of Fairbanks on Chena Hotsprings road back during the winter of '82-'83. Myself and my associates rented a two bedroom trailer WITHOUT running water for $600/month. I can still recall with "fond reflection" those hasty early morning trips out back to the "contemplation station" where I prayed that I wouldn't be frozen to the seat (foam padding helped). But the awesome Auroura's were worthy compensation for the excessive rent. Regards, Ron
