Why doesn't the city offer the buildings to the residents so they can create their own co-op?

keeping your own apartment clean only does so much, though. i used to have a horrible cockroach infestation because the apartment above mine was filled with them. when the super tore up that apartment to redo it after the tenants moved out, he took the drywall down and the inside was completely covered and crawling, floor to ceiling, with freakin cockroaches. once he was able to get rid of that infestation, lo and behold, our apartment totally cleared up.

perhaps keeping your apartment clean will reduce it as well
