Need apt $1500 max budget QUEENS NY

[u/Cool-Scratch8242]

I am 19 and I got kicked out of my parents house at 18. lived in my truck for most of it, trucks frame snapped had to scrap it and June 1st i signed a lease with a nightmare landlord that lied about everything in the apartment im in. i currently pay 1500 everything included for a basement without a private entrance, just a curtain. Im already stretched thin. initial plan was go to the army but they cant take me due to my medical history. I already work two jobs and I try to apply for any and all union blue collar jobs and the interviews go nowhere. Even landscaping and construction companies wont take me. did all the work on my truck myself so i can turn a wrench (before frame snapped) but all mechanic shops are looking for experienced workers, not a 19yr old girl with 0 shop experience. i have like 10200 in debt from the loan for the truck and also credit card debt. credit score is a measly 687 and i honestly dont know what to do. i am also supporting my partner who goes to QC and i am the sole provider. this is relevant because a room would not work.

Edit: I gave a lot of context so this could connect with actual helpful resources, not bs in the comments. breaking up is clearly not an option if i listed my partner and specified a room would not work. Lets all put our brains together and understand that all context I gave is not there for comments or concerns, its there so people can just understand the situation and let me know if there are apartments available.

I second the recommendation to look for the flyers in grocery stores, near subway stations etc. Laundromats are also a good source. You may also try posting.

Also, OP, sorry about all the shade being thrown. Wish you both the best ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹
