JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Ability Housing and partners on Tuesday opened the Village at Cedar Hills, a Jacksonville affordable housing community where 90 families will move in just in time for the holidays.
Mayor Donna Deegan said the opening is a meaningful day for Jacksonville.
“We’ve got to make housing more affordable, keep building solutions that meet people where they are,” Deegan said. “And that is exactly what this community represents, so developments like the village at Cedar Hill show us what progress looks like here in Jacksonville. Homes that are high quality, they’re energy efficient.”
