Chula Vista's LIHTC-funded affordable housing inventory represents a significant effort to provide low-income housing options. The program has made a substantial impact over its 26-year presence in the city. The diverse range of unit types and the consistent development of new projects demonstrate an ongoing commitment to addressing affordable housing needs. As the city continues to grow and evolve demographically, the role of LIHTC-funded housing remains crucial in maintaining a diverse and inclusive community.
