No city in America has enough low-income housing. Houston is one of the worst.
“The city of Houston has the second-fewest homes available for the lowest income renters at a time when more and more Americans are out of work due to the pandemic, a report released Thursday found. Nationwide, there are 37 homes accessible to every 100 extremely low-income renters (households with income at or below the poverty line or, if it’s higher, the median income of their area). In Texas, the ratio is 29 to 100; in Houston, the ratio drops to 19 to 100.”
