Affordable Southampton

But after calculating the median cost of housing on a community-by-community
basis, town officials learned the only place in Southampton where moderate-income
families could afford to buy a home is the one place where the town already has
promised not to build more affordable housing. That is the
Flanders-Riverside-Northampton area, which has the highest density zoning in
Southampton, the lowest median income and already has more than its share of
low- and moderate-cost housing.
