Amid the successes of new residential housing developments throughout the United States, there are many policy analysts and community activists who remain concern about the general lack of affordable housing in some parts of the country. One such group is the National Low Income Housing Coalition, which is primarily focused on the creation and maintenance of housing for persons in the lowest income brackets. The site itself is quite rich in materials, including the Advocate’s Guide which contains short chapters describing more than 60 housing-related programs, proposals, and issues. Another very useful set of documents are the “Out of Reach” annual reports, which offer statistical data and summaries of the affordability (or lack of affordability) of housing options in different regions of the country.
