Cariann Lile says she feels loved. After six years of living on the streets, near Independence Avenue and The Paseo in Northeast Kansas City, her new home has given her the opportunity to breathe for once. Eden Village, a tiny home community in KCK, was designed to bring stability to people like her, who have experienced chronic homelessness. Soon, more people will have access to a similar community in Midtown KCK. Rent, including utilities, will be $400 for those who qualify to live there. Officials behind the project hope this new development will serve as yet another way that people can pitch in to address a large affordable housing shortage and prevalent homelessness in KCK, a city that has lacked a year-round homeless shelter despite officials’ plans to build one.
