Dangers of Residing in Aging Apartment Buildings

The City of Colorado Springs, Colorado has precious few options where finding an accessible apartment that is actually affordable for a person with a disability is concerned, especially if safety is a primary concern. Many of the apartment buildings that exist and are affordable are littered along a couple of very busy streets in this city and have, "up and down," stairs to get to the first and second or floors located above. In other words, if you want to get to the, "first," floor you have to go down a flight of stairs; you also have to climb stairs to get to the second floor. Such is the case in the building I am currently living in.
