Housing is a fundamental part of all communities – and a critical part of community development. Yet the types of housing needed, and the best way to deliver housing to residents, differs due to household characteristics, economic pressures, and community resources. We conduct customized research to identify our clients’ most pressing needs for housing, community development, and community services. These studies result in data-driven strategic plans that do more than simply “make a dent” or comply with federal requirements.

Our research helps communities make a difference.

The Housing and Community Development practice area includes market analyses, needs assessments, Consolidated Plans, Comprehensive Plans, neighborhood plans, affordability studies, and strategic plans.
