What is affordable housing?
According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), affordable housing is generally defined as housing that a household can secure by spending no more than 30% of their gross income on housing costs. This includes rent or mortgage payments, along with utilities like gas, electricity, water, and garbage collection.
How we help bridge the gap by providing affordable housing.
Throughout the years, Neighborhood Housing Services of Southern Nevada (NHSSN) acts as a bridge for low- and moderate-income families seeking a secure and affordable place to call home. We, as a non-profit organization, work tirelessly to fulfill its mission of "building better neighborhoods block by block" through a multi-pronged approach.
By providing a pathway to homeownership, fostering financial literacy, and advocating for change, Neighborhood Housing Services of Southern Nevada serves as a vital bridge, helping Southern Nevada bridge the gap of affordable housing.
