The Housing Gap

Across the United States, renters at every rung of the income ladder—especially teachers, nurses, first responders, service staff, and young families—are being priced out of proximity to jobs. New construction has skewed to higher price points while millions of low-rent homes have disappeared, leaving a persistent shortfall even as population and household formation continue to grow. Wages have not kept pace with rent and operating costs, aging buildings need reinvestment, and assistance reaches only a fraction of those who qualify. The result is a structural mismatch: longer commutes, overcrowding, delayed household formation, and employers struggling to hire and retain talent. Expanding the supply of safe, attainable homes isn’t just a social good—it’s a core economic need for resilient cities, competitive employers, and stable neighborhoods.
