EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WEHT)- In November, HOPE of Evansville officially cut the ribbon on their Homes of Evansville 2 program- bringing much-needed affordable housing to Evansville’s Goosetown and Tepe Park neighborhoods. But almost two months later, HOPE official Nikki Waller says it’s not enough.
Waller says the affordable housing block was at about 99 percent occupancy when they cut the ribbon in late November, but the need is being felt across the River City. Not only is there a need for new affordable housing, but Waller says there’s also a need to fix, modernize, and improve the living conditions for Evansville’s most cost-burdened residences.
