New possibilities for children living in affordable housing

Did you know that more than half our apartments include children and teenagers living with one or both parents? In this video we would like to highlight the positive intergenerational impact on families and children by providing quality, affordable housing.

City West Housing residents never pay more than 30 percent of their household income as rent. This unique model means parents are guaranteed stable homes for their children, even in the event of job loss, illness, or other unforeseen changes in their lives.

“I love living in my City West Housing unit and I never knew how it would positively impact my life in so many different ways. It has given me a stable place to live in my early career which has been trying at times but having my unit made me push through. It’s made my relationships more stable and made my health better.”

“City West are the best! I’m incredibly grateful that I am able to live in a vibrant city at an affordable rent. The convenience of being able to live near where I work also allows me to have a well-balanced lifestyle, which basically means plenty of time for cooking which I love!”

“When my family and I immigrated to Australia from Mauritius in 1970, our first steps on Australian soil was in Pyrmont, and although I’ve had the privilege of living in the city for years, today it’s no longer affordable. I’m so fortunate to have my CWH apartment which has allowed me to stay close to my friends and family and community services place of work. Without my CWH apartment I can’t imagine how far I would have to travel to work or even worse, being separated from my support networks.”
