Anya Lindsey, a single mother, was sharing a bedroom with her two young children at her parents’ home when she heard a news story about USDA Rural Development’s housing affordability programs.
Before reaching out to RD-NV, Anya had concerns that it would be difficult, or even impossible, to afford a home on a limited income.
Un Lee, living in Las Vegas, was displaced from her apartment because of an increase of rent. Lee was living from hotel room to hotel room, wondering if there would ever be an opportunity to find permanent housing, before she called the USDA Rural Development office in Las Vegas and asked for help.
Today, both Anya Lindsey and Un Lee as well as many other Nevadans have been able to find safe and affordable housing through USDA’s housing programs. Throughout the country, USDA Rural Development has helped nearly 5 million families and individuals secure housing and throughout the Silver State, we work hard to extend this opportunity to everyone in our rural communities.
