Housing Reports and Plans

2023 Housing Snapshot Report

The Housing Snapshot Report details high-level trends and needs of the City’s housing market, while also highlighting outcomes of key City initiatives. Because the housing market continues to change, and needs of residents change with it, this report allows residents and City officials an up-to-date overview of key data points on an annual basis. An updated report is published by the end of the 3rd quarter annually.

2019 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice Full Report and AI Summary Report

Every five years, the City of Madison is required to complete an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, which assesses disparities in and barriers to housing access and production for residents based on protected class status. This report helps guide equitable decisions in how the City spends funds to support housing and planning initiatives, helping inform ways to make Madison a more sustainable and equitable City for everyone.
