Athens Clarke County, you've asked for this.

Homestead fills a void in workforce housing in Athens-Clarke County while providing safe, comfortable housing options for the working family. Athens-Clarke County has a commuting workforce, with approximately 2/3 of those employed in the county commuting from other areas.

ACC citizens and leadership a like have recognized that there is a severe lack of housing for working families. But what is being done?

“Finding affordable housing in Athens is a real challenge for many of us. Working people have trouble finding single-family homes they can afford. The good news is this is a local problem that local government can do something about, and if I’m elected mayor, we’ll make housing more affordable”
