NEW REPORT: Engaging the Future of Housing in Buffalo-Niagara

Engaging the Future of Housing in Buffalo-Niagara, a project supported by LISC WNY and PPG Buffalo and carried out in collaboration with Dr. Jason Knight at SUNY Buffalo State, quantifies and unpacks supply- and policy-related shortcomings in the Buffalo-Niagara region’s housing landscape. From there, the report looks ahead to project ways in which observable changes to the region’s demographics and population might exacerbate existing, systemic housing challenges in Erie and Niagara Counties. Situated in empirical evidence, the report concludes with recommendations for moving forward and linking disparate housing-related efforts in the region together in a concerted effort to advance housing security.
