DESCRIPTION |
|
|
|
This indicator addresses the distribution of affordable housing in the community. It looks at the distribution of affordable housing units in the
city by neighborhood. The city has stated as its goal to achieve and maintain a mix of affordable, livable and green housing types throughout the
city for people of all socio-economic, cultural and household groups. There is no target for distribution of affordable housing in the
city.
No trend can be established because we have only
one year of data. |

ANALYSIS |
|
|
|
Affordable housing in a sustainable
city is dispersed throughout the community. Typical urban growth patterns result in a lack of affordable housing, concentrated poverty and limited access to jobs and community resources. In a sustainable
city, affordable housing is dispersed throughout the community to promote integration, share resources and provide a consistent level of service to every member of the community.
