A new affordable housing project is bringing more than 120 apartments to San Diego's Linda Vista neighborhood.
At a time when house prices are through the roof, Levant Senior Cottages is aiming to bring some relief to low-income seniorsThe $48.8-million project — Levant Senior Cottages — sits just across from Linda Vista Park and is the county’s latest effort to prevent vulnerable seniors from becoming homeless.Sign up for NBC San Diego newsletters.
The number of San Diegans 55 and older who are homeless increased by 30% from last year, according to the 2024 Point-in-Time report. Last week, Serving Seniors’ CEO Paul Downey told NBC 7 they saw a 15% increase in adults over 55 living in their car. “Rent varies by income level, so what we suggest is that individuals who are interested contact Wakeland Housing so that they can put themselves on the list. They can apply, and they can work through the financials for their individual circumstances,” Estrella said.
Levant is the first property to open its doors as a result of a new county initiative to repurpose excess land as affordable housing. The county is working on two other future developments with Wakeland Housing and Development Corporation.
