Maricopa County celebrates new affordable housing community in Buckeye

PHOENIX — Maricopa County representatives on Thursday commemorated the grand opening of an affordable housing development in Buckeye, according to a press release.

Solana Villas, which consists of 200 one-to-three bedroom units, is accepting applications from individuals with an income at or below 60% of the county’s Area Median Income (AMI).

The new apartment complex is located just west of Buckeye Union High School at 25201 W. MC 85.

Rental units range from 707-1,207 square feet and feature pre-installed essentials like a dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator and oven. Other unit offerings are central air conditioning and walk-in closets, according to the press release.

Maricopa County District 5 supervisor Steve Gallardo said the addition of more affordable housing was “a major win.”

“It’s more than just a new community — it shows the (Maricopa County) Board’s commitment to meeting the affordable housing needs of county families in rapidly expanding areas,” Gallardo said in the release. “This project represents our ongoing dedication to ensuring everyone has access to an affordable place they can call home.”

Externally, the Buckeye rental community has the following facilities for its incoming members: a clubhouse, centralized laundry area, fitness center, several picnic areas, electric charging car ports, a swimming pool and free Wi-Fi across common lodging spaces.

Solana Villas was a byproduct of a $2 million federal investment via the American Rescue Plan Act. The rental community is one of four active projects being spearheaded by Minnesota-based company, Roers Cos.
