Sustainable Affordable Housing

Sustainable affordable housing goes beyond just addressing the affordability issue and focuses on the health and environmental impacts of housing design and construction of the structure as well as the community that surrounds the house or housing development.  Housing that is built in a sustainable manner allows for immediate and long-term operating efficiencies in addition to a healthy living environment.
