Got ideas to fix ATX housing needs? Let's hear them!
Community events launch for new Austin Housing Plan
With housing prices continuing to rise at an alarming rate, we need a strategic housing plan to meet the needs of people who call Austin home.
A new Austin Housing Plan will address these topics:
(1) How might we ensure our children can afford to live in Austin?
(2) Where should Austinites who work hard – cooking food, watching your children, and caring for the sick – be able to afford to live?
(3) The cost of housing is inter-connected with City decisions around job access, parking, permitting, and housing types allowed. For City leaders, doing nothing different is not an option. So, which changes can you live with?

The Austin Housing Plan seeks to increase housing choices available to all Austinites, as called for in Imagine Austin.
