Austin is leading the affordable housing boom. It's still not enough
Briefly

Austin is experiencing a significant building boom driven by its evolution into a tech hub. In the past decade, the city has grown its population by 21%, with major companies like Apple and Amazon setting up offices. This influx has prompted a rush in housing construction, especially affordable units, which have notably increased in recent years. In 2024, Austin is set to deliver more affordable units than any other U.S. city, with a commitment to maintaining its diverse population amidst rising wealth and median income levels.
