The U.S. Conference of Mayors (USCM) and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) released the results of a National Housing Survey of 120 U.S. cities, whose responses show a country struggling with a housing access and affordability crisis that city leaders expect to worsen significantly without federal action. The survey, which spans 43 states and represents nearly 35 million people, presents a stark picture of the challenge. During USCM’s 93rd Winter Meeting in Washington, DC, mayors talked extensively about potential solutions for addressing the crisis.
