Most people agree that there needs to be more affordable housing options being built in Arizona, but where to build them opens up a huge debate. One local developer believes affordable housing should be built next to multimillion-dollar homes.
That is what he is doing at Timber Sky, a master-planned community in Flagstaff.
“You can deliver $2 million homes, and you can deliver Habitat for Humanity starters homes – they can be in the same development,” Walter Crutchfield, a partner at Vintage Partners, told the Business Journal. “The best communities span every economic level.”

What is "affordable"? If I'm buying some two million dollar home I don't wanna be within miles and miles and miles of some habitat/welfare home subdivision. Why would anyone want crime at their doorstep like this?
"“The best communities span every economic level.”
Give an example of this. Phoenix has many areas that resemble this and nobody in the state calls them the best communities.
If I bought a $2 million dollar home, I'd love to have a couple living in a shipping container as my neighbors.
The cookouts should have wonderful conversations about all the things we have in common.
