(May 7, 2024) We are excited to announce the launch of Wiggles Way, an affordable housing community for low and moderate-income households.
Wiggles Way contains twenty-two thoughtfully built apartments, each with hardwood floors, private storage in the basement, and shared washer/dryers in every building. Additionally, residents will have access to a spacious park on-site.
The community is mixed income with both Affordable and Workforce apartments. Six Affordable units will be allocated through a lottery system, offering below-market rates to eligible low-income households. Sixteen Workforce apartments are available to moderate-income households, selected from our Ready-to-Rent list.
Here’s a breakdown of the Affordable units available:
- 1 Bedroom / 1 Bathroom: 2 units
- 2 Bedrooms / 1.5 Bathrooms: 3 units
- 3 Bedrooms / 2 Bathrooms: 1 unit
Maximum monthly rents for Affordable units, inclusive of electricity, are as follows:
- 1 Bedroom: $2,194
- 2 Bedrooms: $2,468
- 3 Bedrooms: $2,741
Eligibility for Affordable Units is determined based on household size and annual income, as outlined below:
