If the rental where you are residing is shut down and deemed unsafe for habitability due to unsafe living conditions, you do not have to pay the landlord and rent at all for the premises so long as they are deemed uninhabitable. You might be subject to a vacate order from a public entity.Potentially your landlord may have to pay you monies for alternate living if the alternate living costs exceed what your monthly rental for the rented property is on a monthly basis. Meaning, if your rent is five-hundred dollars ($500.00) monthly and you have to rent a place for more than this amount, the excess would be what the landlord is responsible to you for during the balance of your lease's term.I recommend that you consult with a landlord tenant attorney regarding this situation.Good luck.
