Housing demand is like rain. Without 'wetlands' to absorb it, it floods, causing spillovers to less desirable areas. Removing barriers and allowing growth in all neighborhoods can prevent this overflow. #datagemfridays strongtowns.org/journal/2024/5…

Housing shortages aren't just about supply, they're about absorption. We need slack in the market - vacancies for movement, just like job markets need some unemployment. More homes = more options = stabilized prices. #datagemfriday strongtowns.org/journal/2024/5…

ADUs are a game-changer for communities! They provide a way for seniors to age in place, allowing them to stay in their beloved neighborhoods, surrounded by familiar faces. This strengthens community ties and supports local culture. #datagemfriday jchs.harvard.edu/blog/how-nonpr…

Regulations can add 24%+ to housing costs! Simplifying zoning and building codes could make housing more affordable for all Georgians, while still keeping us safe. Check out the workforce housing report by the Georgia House Study Committee: improvenorthfulton.org/resources/2024…

Small towns are facing a housing crisis of their own, with a 47.8% increase in underproduction since 2020. As demand rises, construction has plummeted. We need investment and innovative solutions to revitalize these communities! #datagemfriday upforgrowth.org/apply-the-visi…

40% of Atlanta homeowners are 45–64 years old, while only 11% are under 35. Rising housing prices and high mortgage rates are sidelining younger buyers. Affordable housing policies are more crucial than ever. #housingcrisis axios.com/newsletters/ax…

California’s bold idea: use the state’s 75,000 acres of school district land for teacher housing. It's already transforming communities from Silicon Valley to rural areas. What if every state adopted this model? #datagemfriday shelterforce.org/2024/11/25/is-…

Affordable housing for workers removes a key barrier for companies choosing a site. “If a person has to commute an hour each way to work, that’s 10 hours a week that they’ve lost in the car." #datagemfriday - Michael Toma, Economist at Georgia Southern University

America's aging population is a key driver of federal spending—Social Security & Medicare make up 69% of non-defense costs. As housing costs rise, seniors on fixed incomes could face homelessness if benefits are slashed. #datagemfriday axios.com/2024/11/20/gov…

In 2024, the cost to build a new home hit $428K—but by the time it reached buyers, the price ballooned to $665K. Why? High construction costs, land prices & builder profits. Can we really expect middle-income families to keep up? atlantaagentmagazine.com/2025/01/24/nah…

"We have a 300,000 unit housing deficit in just the core five counties...and we’ve got to get serious about this, especially given that in Metro Atlanta, we’re adding 2 million people by 2050." #adus #housing - Mayor Michael Caldwell More on NF Voices: improvenorthfulton.org/north-fulton-v…

Worried about parking, neighborhood aesthetics, or infrastructure impact? ADUs are designed to blend with existing homes, and most ADU residents have fewer cars. 📷 ADUs can help us find housing solutions together! #ADUs #HousingSolution
