Through the Roof

Jeffrey Lubell, Mark A. Willis, and Ingrid Gould Ellen

This report shows what local governments can do to mitigate the rising cost of rental housing in the United States. Drawing on the authors’ experience building the National Community of Practice on Local Housing Policy, the report considers the root causes of high rent burdens, reviews evidence about the consequences, and lays out a framework that cities, towns, and counties can use to help provide all their citizens with safe, decent, affordable housing options.
