Municipal landlords have by far been the best in my experience. They're not for-profit, their employees are strongly unionized (though the ones in private companies might be too) and they actually respond to issues you're having in a timely manner.
You're talking about city/state supplied housing? I've seen good and bad from both but I'm general that seems to be a less and less common thing.
I'm talking about my own experience, which is Sweden. Municipal landlords are not something that's going away. They're usually way more fairly priced and a lot of student apartments are rented by them.
Yeah we need more of that here.
