All Hail the Lake Worth CRA and La Joya Villages


The Lake Worth CRA presents, La Joya Villages Apartments, in Lake Worth, Florida. 

As an affordable rental apartment community, La Joya Villages has increased activity and stability to the surrounding community.

Developed by Realtex Southeast and the Community Land Trust of Palm Beach County, the development is comprised of 55 two and three bedroom units targeting families earning 80% and below of the area median income. 

La Joya Villages was designed to provide quality residential units and community amenities to an existing community and strengthen redevelopment in the area. Site amenities include a clubhouse, splash park, History Labyrinth made of pervious pavers, native plants, and historical markers, community gardens for both La Joya residents and the surrounding community to utilize. 

[*Here is a blog entry from earlier in the year I posted showing the neglect and unfortunate conditions in that area of the City. It's exciting things are turning around for those residents.]
