Developed by Urban Housing Communities LLC (UHC), a leading developer of quality multifamily residential projects, The Crossings at Big Bear Lake is a $17 million affordable housing community for families earning between 30 percent and 60 percent of the area median income and was developed in collaboration with the City of Big Bear Lake's Improvement Agency, Bank of America, and the project's designer, KTGY Group.
