GREENSBORO, N.C. -- The housing crisis continues in Greensboro as the number of people needing affordable housing outweighs the number of units available in the city.

  • Dozens of people are still looking for housing after a tornado damaged their homes months ago
  • Greensboro Housing Coalition has $100,000 set aside for victims
  • The Housing Coalition is expanding their search diameter to High Point and Browns Summit

Dozens of people misplaced from the tornado, now months behind us, are still looking to be relocated.

The Greensboro Housing Coalition says they still have close to $100,000 set aside for tornado victims, so the money is there but affordable housing isn't.

"When you have someone who an agency tells 'we'll help you with $1,500 towards your first month's rent and your security deposit and they can't come back to you to spend that $1,500' it tells you they're really struggling out there trying to find places or maybe have given up," executive director of the housing coalition Brett Byerly said.

Out of 100 people who went to the coalition seeking help after the tornado, they've relocated 36 families. There's still at least 30 others in need of rehousing.

"We're still here. We still have the funds to help folks move into these places, and they shouldn't give up they should continue to look," Byerly said. "We're going through a process right now of calling all the pending people and finding out whats happened with their situation."

The Housing Coalition is expanding their search diameter to High Point and Browns Summit in hopes of getting people relocated as soon as possible.
