EVIDENCE BASED PLANNING

PUTTING HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENTS AND

HEALTH DATA TO WORK FOR YOUR COMMUNITY

A Housing Needs Assessment concludes with quantifying the number of housing units needed in the market by specifics such as:

·        Rentals vs. for-sale

·        Price point

·        Number of bedrooms

·        Market segment (percentages of housing types needed by families, seniors, young professionals, people with disabilities, etc.)

The assessment typically provides recommendations on how to achieve certain housing goals and will provide recommendations on potential housing policy initiatives that would benefit the local housing market.

In instances where a community has available land that could be used to develop new housing or the adaptive reuse of existing structures, site-specific analysis can also be included as part of an overall Housing Needs Assessment.

An analysis can even be conducted on submarkets or select neighborhoods within the subject community. 

Data sorts can be customized to pave a pathway toward meeting the specific needs of a community.
