Essex Cares About Community
Our mission is to develop communities that have a positive impact on the environment, society, and the local community.
Our goal is to make our communities a place our residents are proud to call home. The four pillars of our corporate social responsibility strategy include improving our residents’ well-being, creating a positive work experience for our employees, reducing our environmental footprint, and delivering long-term results for our investors.
As industry leaders, we recognize the importance of building and sustaining eco-friendly apartment homes. Our sustainable living strategy focuses on reducing our environmental impact through energy efficiency, renewable energy generation, water conservation, and waste management. From native landscapes and renewable energy resources to EV charging stations and bike storage rooms, our Essex communities allow residents to embrace a sustainable lifestyle.
