America’s Working Families and Housing Landscape is a study released last week by the Center for Housing Policy at the National Housing Conference (NHC). The study found that in two years there has been a dramatic 30 percent rise in the number of working families that spend more than half their income on housing. It reaffirms that working the equivalent of a full-time job does not guarantee American families a decent, affordable place to live. For more information about this study, go to the NHC Web site.
