Abstract

This thesis delves into the multifaceted realm of housing affordability in the United States, focusing on the supply-side dynamics shaping its availability and accessibility. Through a comprehensive analysis, this study investigates various factors influencing the supply of affordable housing, including governmental policies, market forces, and socio-economic trends. By synthesizing existing literature, statistical data, and case studies, it sets out to reveal the interconnectedness of regulatory frameworks, existing housing policies, existing programs, and initiatives in the affordable housing sector. Moreover, this research examines strategies to combat the housing affordability crisis. The findings highlight the importance of taking a regional approach to address the regional problem of affordable housing. Ultimately, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the supply-side dynamics shaping the landscape of housing affordability and offers insights for policymakers, practitioners, and advocates striving to foster meaningful and sustainable housing solutions.
