Deep Dive: Housing Crisis (Part 2)

Play

This is Deep Dive: WFHB and Limestone Post Investigate, where we look into issues regarding Health, Housing, and the Environment that directly impact residents of Monroe County. This month we are looking into the Housing Crisis, next month we will address possible solutions.

This week we look deeper into the quality of Bloomington’s housing stock. One aspect of the housing crisis is that there are not enough units to keep up with the demand of the people living here. This low supply paired with the high demand of the college town, leads to competition over the housing market. Which can lead to people taking what they can get and settling for –  or getting stuck in – lower quality housing. 

Tune in next Wednesday at 5 p.m. for a deeper dive into Monroe County’s Housing Crisis. Visit the Limestone Post to read the full print version of the story.
