Housing Needs Assessment Report
The intention of this report is to estimate the demand for affordable housing in Louisiana, taking into account the pace of recovery since Hurricane Katrina and the effectiveness of recent statewide housing initiatives. The data and findings within the report are a result of an ongoing study sponsored by the Louisiana Housing Corporation (LHC) to track current and future housing demand with respect to new housing developments. In particular, this report analyzes the expected population growth in the New Orleans metro area in comparison with the tens of thousands of new subsidized rental units slated for construction over the next three years.
