McCormick Apartments: The Real Columbia County Saint Helens

 McCormick Apartments: Old Portland Road, Saint Helens Oregon

 The Real Columbia County,the one no one talks about. Lucas, the owner, is an attorney, the son of a local attorney, who have law offices a block from the courthouse in Saint He lens Oregon.

 Lucas rents to whoever  shows up with the cash, so many felons etc and out of towners move here because no questions are asked.  NOHA, Community Action and the electric company know about his reputation, but nothing happens, it remains year in year out as a place where the poor are harassed and criminals get a foot hold in the county. Spies, constant evictions, security cameras.
 The Owner lives in Palm Springs most of the year and uses the poor to act as spies. It's mostly about torture and revenge. Down at the Couthouse , the one that has Ted Grove as a judge, there is a sign saying Lucas Lucas, a special mailbox for  this landlord and his daddy, who actually kept two tenants from getting their security deposit back, by calling the judge long distance from California , stating that his car had broke down.

 Don't think  the rent is cheap, the landlords in Columbia County are charging high  rent, while ignoring  any laws that protect tenants. 

 The following is a review placed on the Internet: The spelling is bad but everything William says is right on the bounced rent check.
