I mention the hurricane because housing is in short supply in the region.
But i have a friend who kindly let a person stay in her house “for a week or two”, and two years later the person (who pays nothing) is trashing the place, not moving, threatening her, and swearing at her in the street… Apparently it will be a long process to get her out.

That is happening in the same county.
