FULLERTON, CA—Orange County and L.A. County residents are increasingly forced to move out of the county in which they work due to the state's housing crisis, making projects like Fullerton Family Housing even more necessary, R.D. Olson Construction's president Bill Wilhelm tells GlobeSt.com. The firm began construction last month on Related California's 55-unit affordable-housing project here, its fourth such project, and completion is expected in May 2018.

The site is located at 335 East Santa Fe Ave., in close proximity to Downtown Fullerton and adjacent to the area's train station. We spoke with Wilhelm about what makes this project unique and how affordable-housing construction compares to other multifamily projects.
