Who Will Live Here? A community conversation about housing, and West Frankfort’s future

Housing affects every part of community life. It influences whether young families choose to stay, whether employers can attract workers, whether seniors can age in place, and whether neighborhoods remain vibrant and healthy. Across the country, communities are wrestling with questions about housing availability, affordability, aging housing stock, population changes, and homelessness. West Frankfort is no exception.
Join us for an informal conversation over coffee as we explore the current state of housing in our community and discuss what the future may hold. This is not a meeting to promote a particular project or agenda. Instead, it is an opportunity to share ideas, learn from one another, and think together about how we can ensure that West Frankfort remains a community where people can find a place to call home. Whether you’re a homeowner, renter, landlord, business owner, community leader, or simply someone who cares about the future of our town, your perspective is welcome.
