Rural Housing

Residents of smaller communities face similar affordable housing challenges as large urban districts, yet with added difficulties. Rural affordable housing developments do not generally occur in large scale, meaning there are far fewer financial incentives available to build affordable housing in those communities.

The lack of affordable housing can force diverse populations, such as senior citizens and families, to seek housing away from communities they have spent their lives within or places that they grown up in and want to raise their own families within.
