Show Notes
A new housing study in Lawrence reveals a stark reality: over half of renters and homebuyers cant afford current prices due to a shortage of new construction. Seventy-six percent of residents struggle to find affordable housing, with fifty-seven percent of renters unable to cover a standard two-bedroom unit. The study also highlights the need for tougher code enforcement and better tenant safeguards, as sixty-nine percent of residents have dealt with serious repair issues. Despite pushback against denser projects, city leaders have outlined a strategic framework to boost supply, fix conditions, and spark smarter public talks. The Affordable Housing Advisory Board will discuss this data and set real metrics for tracking progress by June.
