Georgia’s population growth is outpacing national growth, and companies are moving to the state because it’s an attractive place to do business. At the same time, housing costs are increasing, and the supply of affordable housing for the growing workforce is not keeping up with demand. In response, Enterprise Southeast, in partnership with Georgia Advancing Communities Together and the Center for Community Progress, has released the "Georgia Statewide Housing Needs Analysis" conducted by KB Advisory Group.
The "Georgia Statewide Housing Needs Analysis" quantifies the housing need in state over the next decade and calculates the billions of dollars in added value, local income, local taxes, and local jobs that would be generated if Georgia met this housing need. The report also identifies opportunities for additional state and local investment in affordable housing.
