I am a 53 yr male on on Disability, I want to be roommates with a 54 yr old female. She works full time, is this a good or bad living arrangements? I would be just renting a room to sleep/share other rooms such as bathroom, kitchen, etc.

sounds reasonable to me, as long as you both are easy going and can give each other privacy when needed. and be courteous to each other to make the living more bearable!! you don't want to get in a fight.... i know! anyway, just remember to be respectful of her space... and she should be of yours too.. don't forget.

well, since you guys are an older audience [no offense] the risk of crime goes down by your roommate [it doesn disappear though, but it is much better to trust an older woman than a younger one]. the only disadvantages would be, maybe you want someone that can be with you, someone retired, so they can take care of themselves, btu still be able to stay at home n take care of you...maybe im suggesting a girlfriend, so that you aren lonely, and iif something were to happen to you, this roommate might not even be home for a while. since you are disabled, you should have some kind of supervision to make sure nothing happens. then, there comes the things that may not come easy for someone who is disabled. the chores. yeah. a girlfriend i thin k would be a good idea. companianship. and shed help you out a bit. this lady will be there, but its almost like shes not there, cuz all shed ever do is basically jus sleep there. you won even see her durin the day! so yeah. try to do a little lookin for romance!! : ]

As long as both parties set ground rules before the arrangement. Talk about everything like having friends over, how late to receive phone calls, who has what chores, bill split ratios, who gets what shelf in the fridge, E V E R Y T H I N G. There is nothing like uncertainty to mess up a good arrangement.

Seems fine. Just make sure she's a person that you could live with (doesn't smell, isn't super messy, isn't annoying, etc.). And you msy want to establish some rules before your become roommates.

Why would not or no longer that is risk-free? If that is in an outstanding section and an outstanding highway than what are you stressful approximately. you think of your 3 male roommates are going to gang rape you? adult adult males are not that unwell! you would be completely superb residing with 3 different adult adult males.

As long as you can live with another person sharing...
I am not sure if this income will have any effect on the disability check.

Why not, if you could help a little around the house, as she permits (kitchen cleaning, bathroom, cooking), she might like that!
