Habitat for Humanity to develop affordable housing for senior citizens, families in Olympia
“Senior citizens are facing a housing shortage—what some researchers are calling a quiet, or invisible crisis. Over the next decade, the number of elderly homeless Americans is projected to triple, and that was before COVID-19 hit.
The City of Olympia owns 10 acres of land on 3900 Boulevard Road and wants to use it to address housing gaps in affordability, stability and variety for senior citizens and families. The city chose South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity to help fulfill the growing housing need in the region.”
