This publication presents original estimates of the economic and fiscal impacts of 45 affordable multifamily housing projects completed in Oklahoma between 2019 and 2023, all financed through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. Readers will find concrete data on job creation, economic output, and tax revenues, both during construction and over 10 years of property operations.
