The Company
Our mission is to make cities more accessible to everyone
We accomplish this by creating comfortable, community homes that inspire people to live a more intentional life.
There’s a place for you in the city. We’re here to help you find it.
We’ll make the living arrangements delightful and sustainable so that people can stay in cities long-term. We will do this by redefining the meaning of home. Innovative interior-design that increases livable space and smart technology that reduces waste will be at our core. We are building our communities in a way that will reflect the diverse, eclectic nature of each city.
Home is welcoming, relaxing and safe. Home is a group of respectful, warm, and empathetic people. Home is an inclusive, uplifting community. Welcome to Starcity.
