SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. — People in Seminole County are getting access to more affordable housing.
Seminole County is investing $1.4 million to facilitate the construction of 19 new affordable homes along 25th Street near 17-92.
This initiative comes as a recent report identifies the Orlando metro area as the lowest in the nation for affordable housing.
The report indicates a significant disparity, noting that for every 100 extremely low-income renters in the area, only 19 affordable units are available.
County leaders said they believe this project will assist families in achieving their aspiration of owning a home.
Officials intend to finish the 19 homes within 14 months.
