Yes, our goal is to give our residence a sense of purpose and support them in paying for their own home.

Rent often comes from government assistance, sponsorship, or employment.

Once land is purchased and infrastructure is complete, Eden Village of Arizona will open up the application process (found on our website) and will start interviewing applicants. Once an applicant is accepted and moved in, they are welcome to live at Eden Village indefinitely.
