Affordable Housing is NOT Affordable in Detroit

6/7/2022

By Linda Little & Adam Hollier
​Detroit is on the brink of a housing crisis. The signs are there: record inflation rates; skyrocketing housing prices that outpace home valuations—making it difficult to secure mortgages; exponential increases in rental rates coupled with the end to eviction moratoriums.  According to the US Census Bureau (
www.census.gov), Detroit’s median household income of $32,498 is a little over half of the state median income of $59,234 making housing unaffordable for not just the 39% of people living in poverty, but a growing working population unable to find adequate housing.  Too many Michiganders are working full time jobs and can’t afford to buy or rent a home.  An increasing number of individuals and families are slipping into homelessness…and the safety net is not able to help them.
