does anyone have any good resources on trying to look for housing as a trans person? like, i feel like i should put up a craigslist posting saying something like "pre everything trans femme looking for queer roommates" or something but idk what i should/shouldn't do or what to look out for

I mean ideally probably don't move in with strangers, but that's not viable for everyone I suppose

Seems like living with trusted friends/partners would always be the safest bet, or solo if you can afford it, but if you've gotta look for queer friendly roommates maybe a queer specific site would be less of a minefield than craigslist. Maybe Lex?

Only other queer people I know are full up on roommates or live an hour away, I'm terminally single, and I don't make quite enough money to go for a studio by myself. If I had that luxury I would have done so months ago, but I live in a very queer friendly area (For the US, anyway), so I'm not too worried

What's Lex, by the way?

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

I've never actually used lex myself but it's supposed to be an app for finding like, queer friends, events, community kind of stuff, I think? Probably better than a fully public forum full of creeps, though still keep your eyes peeled for red flags, moving in with people is a pretty big commitment

Lex has a bit of a bad reputation for transmisogyny but I also know a few success stories from using it as well. I think it's likely to be better than craigslist.
