The discussion expands on the report, “Preserving Affordable Housing in Harris County,” which examines the role of subsidized and unsubsidized affordable housing — and efforts to preserve both.
Panelists focus on “Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing” or NOAH — properties that charge rents considered affordable without public subsidies. This supply is most at risk of becoming unaffordable through market forces or unlivable through deferred maintenance.
Panelists also discuss where investments can be made and what lessons can be learned from other cities.
