Apartment development residents may live next to each other, perhaps even be cordial with a few of their neighbors, but that doesn't always mean they're a community. Forging those bonds takes time and effort. In multifamily housing, building that sense of community can be just as vital to the success of a development as the bricks and mortar holding it up. In an era where more housing - especially multifamily housing - is sorely needed, bringing neighbors together can transform a collection of buildings into a village.
Building Community
What could such a community look like? It might include community gardens with bees brought in to pollinate them, hydroponic gardens, new trees planted, and chickens to provide fresh eggs and companionship.
"Those are some exciting ones. We've put chickens at a community. We've put tortoises at a community. The Urban Village team, they find some great things," Jenny Romera, president of New Earth Residential, told BOSS.
New Earth's Urban Village program serves thousands of residents nationwide with a focus on helping them connect and engage with their apartment communities. Many programs that can boost a community are things a property manager would never have the time to find. A dedicated on-site team can, though, and both residents and investors reap the rewards.
