AHS believes that making room for Missing Middle Housing means more options for Arlington’s future. While Missing Middle Housing is not the solution to all of Arlington’s affordable housing challenges, it is an essential piece of the larger puzzle to help meet the needs of all Arlingtonians. Housing prices in Arlington have escalated to the point where even those earning moderate incomes struggle to find housing that meets their needs, including the essential workers living and working in our community. Expanding Missing Middle Housing will bolster the supply of naturally lower-cost housing in our community and make Arlington a more inclusive, more sustainable, and more desirable place to call home.
With support from Virginia Housing, AHS joined together with the Langston Boulevard Alliance to launch Missing Middle Arlington, a new educational resource and hub for all the latest developments, news, and events around Missing Middle Housing. We invite you to visit the website, learn more about Missing Middle Housing, and join the conversation about how we can work together to make Arlington a place for everyone.
