Sound Strategies for Sustainable Communities

 Housing

Maintaining access to housing that is affordable to a wide range of households is a challenge in a growing number of communities.  It can be helpful for many municipalities to identify appropriate techniques for addressing housing questions, learn about the policies that others have implemented, and craft a housing policy that will accommodate diversity of incomes.

Our housing work includes producing articles, case studies, reports, and other publications on topics such as inclusionary zoning, affordable housing, and mixed-income communities.
