We look forward to growing our partnership with FCLF.”– John Raymond, National Development of America, Inc. In Wauchula, as in many areas of Florida, there is a shortage of available and affordable rental housing. In Hardee County, an estimated 42% of renter households are cost-burdened, meaning they pay more than 35% of income on housing and related expenses.
