THE HOUSING CRUNCH IS REAL

HOW WE GOT HERE, HOW WE ADDRESS IT AND THE DEMOGRAPHIC SHIFTS THAT WILL IMPACT WHAT AND WHERE WE CALL HOME

The Rosen Group report “State and Local Policy Strategies to Advance Housing Affordability” highlights policy pathways that communities should consider pursuing in order to support local affordability, such as:

Inclusionary zoning is a direct approach, by which localities or states can require developments to include affordable housing, often in areas where it is undersupplied or would provide a large public good.

It is important for inclusionary housing policies to align with local market conditions to ensure that these policies remain economically and socially viable and do not turn into a barrier to development.
