Increase Transportation Access to Housing
We strive to increase access to opportunity, particularly concerning affordable housing, as well as access to work, education, and healthy living.
Overview
Houston faces a decreasing supply of affordable housing, increasing rents, and an eviction crisis. Additionally, residents continue to spend a high proportion of their income on transportation, reflected by increasing costs of vehicle ownership per household. These transportation costs compound the affordability challenge. In order to address affordability for Houstonians, we must consider housing and transportation costs together.
