MEDFORD, MA — The issues Mary Stathos describes are straight from every renter's nightmare: cockroaches, rodents, mold, broken amenities, safety hazards. Her kitchen floor had peeled up, exposing rot underneath. Pieces of her neighbor's ceiling were falling off when she was over for dinner.
There were times the building's front door did not lock, and others it locked tenants in, forcing them out through the fire escape. Renters had to pony up $3 just to see if the washer and dryer were working because there were never any "out of order" signs. https://patch.com/massachusetts/medford/medford-tenants-unionize-fight-over-apartment-conditions
