Nate says, “Living here has been a blessing… Our two-bedroom apartment costs $485 per month. It would cost us much more for the same space anywhere else. We appreciate the opportunity to live here and feel a responsibility to make the place better and keep it as nice as possible. To have a successful community everyone must make an effort.”
For 10 years Jeanette has volunteered as the tenant representative on the Sharon Ridge Board. They say, “Our ability to live at Sharon Ridge is a great and beautiful thing.”
