Affordable housing unit opens in West Chester

Politicians, well-wishers and dignitaries attended Wednesday’s ribbon cutting of the Pinckney Hill Commons housing development. New residents are moving in to 51 recently constructed affordable housing units at Pinckney Hill Commons, at East Market Street, on the grounds of the Melton Center.

With limits set on both the minimum and maximum required income for middle income residents, the apartments are attracting nurses, retail workers and school workers.
