It’s no secret people want to live in this area. However, actually getting to do so is a challenge! With a limited amount of space, affordable rentals, apartments, available lots, or reasonable housing costs, making Salida home can seem unrealistic for some. This page is dedicated to helping both those from the area find/keep affordable housing and for those who are looking to join this community. You will also find sources for ways you can get involved in helping others with their housing needs.
