Atlanta's commitment to affordable housing is being driven by Mayor Andre Dickens, who aims to create or preserve 20,000 units by 2030. Since 2022, over 3,000 units have been established, with another 5,000 in development. The Affordable Housing Strike Force, initiated by Dickens, brings together various community leaders to identify public properties for housing projects. With a median house price of $375,000, many families struggle with affordability, particularly those earning below the area median income of $86,000 for a family of four.
In May 2022, Dickens started the Affordable Housing Strike Force made up of leaders from numerous sectors of Atlanta, including housing, education, and transportation.
Families at this income level will have difficulty affording housing in many parts of the metro, as the area median income for a family of four is $86,000.
