"A NEW housing development in Erskine, officially opened on Friday, has already helped families and seniors.

The 22-home facility is managed by Stellar Living and residents began to move in late last year. Housing Minister Colin Holt said there was a high demand for affordable housing in the region.

“Mandurah has one of the highest proportions of people aged 65-plus in Western Australia and the type of housing predicted to increase the most in demand in the region is single-person accommodation,” he said.

“The Erskine development helps meet this demand with 16 homes for aged pensioners and six for families."
