All of those apartment complexes in Pocomoke are Section 8 snakepits.The amazing thing is that some DA developer actually built a townhome complex on Rt13 that is wedged right between two of these tenements.They come up to Pocomoke from Va's Eastern Shore because Marylands Social Services are more generous.
