New Housing For July 2022 Flood Victims in Floyd County

With many victims of the July 2022 flood still without a permanent place to live, officials are planning a new housing development in Prestonsburg.

Called the New Hope Estates, it is the first phase of a plan to build more than 40 new homes intended for those displaced by the flood.

WYMT reports it is the result of a state initiative to get people to rebuild outside of the flood-prone areas but still stay within the Floyd County tax base.

If you are interested, come to the Floyd County Community Center in Langley on Thursday from 2pm-6pm to learn how to get help with a down payment and low interstate loans.

Bring your flood documentation.
