More affordable housing is now available in St. Johns County, but it might not be for long. Today, county leaders held a ribbon cutting for the Victoria Crossing apartments in St. Augustine to meet what it calls a need for low-cost housing.
Developers for the complex say the $29-million complex has 96 units, some of which are as cheap as $375 per month. Victoria Crossing officials tell me people started moving into the complex at the start of September. Now, I’m told, only 20 of the 96 units are left. Victoria Crossing officials expect the rest of the units to be taken before the start of November.
The complex is one of about 80 other housing developments either proposed or underway in St. Johns, according to the“We’re working with a delicate balance of finding necessary growth and also filling the needs of our affordable housing, which is really, really high here,” St. Johns County Commissioner Roy Alaimo said.But as more people move in, county leaders say rising living costs around the county are pushing locals out, especially people like teachers and first responders.
