New Affordable Housing Co-Ops Open In Digby And Shelburne Counties
New non-profit cooperative housing developments opened their doors in Digby and Shelburne counties, providing stable, long-term rentals to regional working families and seniors. Community leaders cut ribbons on the units this morning following eighteen months of construction.
The co-op housing model keeps rent rates tied to operational maintenance rather than speculative market pricing. Municipal officials in western Nova Scotia noted that these units fill a gap for young families and rural healthcare staff struggling to find rentals in the area.
