Mundy Park Apartments

For housing to be considered affordable, a household should be spending no more than 30% of their income on rent/mortgage. According to recent Canada Mortgage and Housing, this means a household of four need a minimum income of $44,500 to afford market rental housing.

The Town of High River's FCSS Department was  very fortunate to receive three grants from Alberta Housing and Urban Affairs which enabled us to begin developing affordable housing in town. To date, the Town has used the funding to build a 24 unit apartment complex, purchase 10 condo units and offer a grant to home owners who wish to develop a secondary suite. We are pleased with the progress we have made and will continue to promote and support the development of mixed income housing to ensure that a range of housing options are available so that ALL High River residents can afford a place to live in our great community.
