To find a home that is deemed "affordable" is tough enough, but to find one in a positively regarded community can be considered impossible for some. As someone who has grown up in North Kingstown, I feel as though I have a pretty good grasp on the way the community is structured. I hope that over the course of the recent blog posts, I have gotten across the point that there IS affordable housing in North Kingstown. Also, a blog post discussing why I believe the community is so highly thought of was evident, so the connection between the community and affordable housing has been made relevant.
"The largest challenge that we face, from my perspective, is the ability to continue moving forward so the agency will have a single mission: that is, to provide decent, safe, and affordable housing." Alphonso Jackson

Nothing is more essential to a positive life than family, specifically housing a family.

Rhode Island, and especially the district of North Kingstown, is considered one of the hardest places in the country to own a home.
