Priced out of Florida? How these plans could lead to more affordable housing
South Florida Priced out of Florida? How these plans could lead to more affordable housing Nonprofits like Camillus House and United Way Miami see new demands as Miami's rising costs put pressure on seniors and working professionals. In response to legal changes such as public camping bans, these groups request millions to sustain and expand services for the homeless. Meanwhile, large-scale redevelopment plans like a project in Little River aim to add thousands of affordable and workforce units in central Miami, promising few or no displacements for current residents. On Florida's Gulf Coast, partnerships between employers and developers like One Stop Housing will bring new affordable apartments to Bradenton, with rents targeted to workers' budgets and supported by county loans.
