Elderly Sefton struggles with unsafe home amid city housing crisis
Thelma Sefton, a near West Side widow, faces mounting code violations and debt while trying to maintain a 2 family house. She borrowed 10000 for repairs including rewiring, but a front porch remains. She relies on Social Security and a late husband’s pension, feeding two dogs on minimal groceries, and fears further decline as crime and neglect in the neighborhood persist.
