Cities are not static open-air museums; their shape and size evolve with time. Because populations grow, it is relevant to understand how cities can and must adapt to an ever-increasing pressure in housing demand and rising cost of urban living. Healthy cities change to accommodate economic and cultural realities of their inhabitants. Cities, like forests, […]

Over the past two years, national housing values grew by 33%. The market was pushed by record-low borrowing rates in 2020 and 2021, as well as a supply constraint due to underbuilding. The enormous demand from first-time buyers is almost as important as the limited fresh supply. The present housing market is also being driven by extraordinarily favorable age demographic trends. Freddie Mac reports 18% more 25-34-year-olds than in 2006. This is a 6.6 million growth from 2006 to now. The number of...

Defining the American dream is personal, and no one individual will have the same definition as another. But the feelings it brings about – success, freedom, and a sense of prosperity – are universal. That’s why, for many people, homeownership remains a key part of the American dream. Your home is your stake in the community, a strong financial investment, and an achievement to be proud of. A recent survey from Bankrate asked respondents to rank achievements as indicators of financial succ...

Nearly three-quarters of Americans say owning a home is a higher measure of achievement than having a successful career, raising a family or earning a college degree, according to a new survey. But affordability remains a challenge for many of them. The survey, released in March for Bankrate.com, a financial services company, found that 74 percent of respondents ranked homeownership as the highest gauge of prosperity, above having a career (60 percent), children (40 percent) and a college educat...

If you’re confused about what affordable housing actually is, you’re not alone. The concept has been cleaved in political discourse so much that “affordable housing” has been frequently misinterpreted and obscured by many of the same myths as other social policies intended to assist low-income and vulnerable groups. To put it plainly, the federal government defines affordable housing, in the broadest sense, as any dwelling, whether rented or owned, that costs less than 30 percent of the ...
