About
The Housing crisis has come home.
In northern Arizona, our high housing costs are having an impact on families and individuals as the cost of housing far exceeds what low- and moderate-income households can afford. Median home price for a single-family home in Flagstaff was $435,000 in 2019. Average rental rates have consistently gone up over the past five years. Now, an average 2-bedroom apartments costs nearly $1,500/mo. The creation of decent, affordable housing is a community-wide issue and we all are part of the solution. We believe everyone deserves to have a place to call home.
