usually I love to shit on muricans, But Germany has something similar. A private company called "Schufa". This private company secretly calculates your credit score (no one knows realy how they calculate it) which determines if you get an apartment (for rent) or not. Living in the wrong street already kills your credit score here.
If the Schufa doesnt have information about you, it counts as negative.
TIL there are streets in Germany one can be homeless in, and it doesn't affect your credit score.
(I'm joking about your usage of "in" as opposed to "on", immediately following talking about not getting a place to live)
Huh?
I was saying that renting an apartment in the wrong street is a factor for a bad credit score here in Germany.
Edit: you can't move into another apartment with a bad creditscore
I think they were making a grammatische joke.
