Data on housing quality, safety and habitability in Houston is lacking, creating a need for information that can help propel policy to improve the condition of homes in the area. Working with community organizations, the Kinder Institute is engaged in an effort to survey residents in targeted neighborhoods about the condition of their homes and neighborhoods. Ultimately, the project hopes to collect data from up to 8,000 households, conduct an analysis to identify needs, and provide guidance to local housing leaders and agencies for addressing those needs.
