Inclusionary Housing

Inclusionary Housing is a policy that requires developers to include affordable homes within new residential projects or contribute to affordable housing funds. The goal is to ensure diverse communities by providing housing options for people with different income levels, especially those who may struggle to afford market-rate prices. This approach helps address housing shortages, promotes socioeconomic diversity, and prevents segregation. It benefits both residents—by increasing housing choices—and communities—by creating more balanced and inclusive neighborhoods.
