Twin Falls faces a growing affordable housing crisis, leaving many residents searching for suitable homes.

 

A major milestone is the recent opening of Alder Apartments, a workforce housing complex offering 72 units for essential workers earning 60% or less of the area’s median income.

 

Rents range from $855 to $1,176 for three-bedroom units, providing relief for families like Krystal’s and Kelvin’s, who now benefit from improved living conditions.

 

The city invested over $1.7 million towards the project, alongside significant contributions from the Idaho Workforce Housing Fund and low-income housing tax credits.

 

Despite these efforts, the need is great—Magic Valley alone needs about 2,000 more affordable homes, with waitlists stretching up to a year.

 

New developments and partnerships with builders like Simplicity by Hayden Homes signal ongoing progress, yet challenges remain as Twin Falls strives for a more inclusive future.
