The Middle Georgia Innovation Corridor is transforming our region into a hub for advanced manufacturing, aerospace technology, and digital innovation. As this initiative attracts new businesses and expands existing operations around Robins Air Force Base, employers will face a critical challenge: housing their diverse workforce. NEW is working to become a key workforce housing solution partner within this corridor, and we’re seeking development partners to join us in meeting this emerging demand.

Development partners who align with NEW today will help establish the foundation for addressing the housing needs of workers earning 80% to 150% of area median income—from teachers and first responders to aerospace engineers and advanced manufacturing technicians. Our mixed-income community approach aligns directly with the City of Perry and Houston County’s strategic plans, ensuring that essential workers across all income levels can live near their workplaces while building long-term wealth through homeownership.

As a 501(c)(3) organization with strong municipal partnerships, NEW offers development professionals unique tax-advantaged opportunities while building projects that directly support regional economic growth. This is your opportunity to be part of an emerging initiative that combines smart business development with meaningful community impact as Middle Georgia establishes itself as a center for innovation and economic opportunity.
