Better Life at Redwood Views
José Fuentes and his family enjoy watching the sunset off the balcony of their new home. Their new apartment is in Redwood Views, a new 100% affordable housing development in Windsor, CA.
The Fuentes family has lived in Windsor for six years in a small apartment on the outskirts of town. One day at work he heard about Redwood Views. He filled out an application and was approved to move in.
“We were looking for something better for the family and we found this opportunity and here we are,” said José.
Partially funded by HCD's Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program, Redwood Views has 52 homes serving individuals and families earning 30-60% of the local area median income, with 40 of those units for income qualified families working in the agricultural sector.
A project of CRP Affordable Housing and Community Development, Redwood Views is located near transit, schools and essential amenities. Direct services will also be offered for residents, including recreational, social, educational, and job assistance and training.
José said he loves the location of the apartment complex, and his family is happy and doing better living there.
“Here everything is close - shopping, grocery stores - we have a lot of places within walking distance. I love it and so does my family,” José said. “They have their own living space. They feel safe and a lot more comfortable.”
