Wildwood Crest - This is the 3rd year that my husband, two kids and I are living in a winter rental. My husband has a great full time job according to Cape May County standards + a side job, I work part time from home while raising our toddlers. But we can't afford to live in a normal year-round here - and our current rental fees raise to 6x in the summer! So we're 'homeless' every summer, renting a roomshare or staying with friends as we play the role of "the help" to people who call us lazy whiners for lamenting that the only affordable housing in Cape May County for lifetime-local, hard workers who are just trying to live honestly, is temporary.
