The availability, or lack thereof, of affordable and workforce housing for low-income individuals and families in South Florida is an ever-growing concern, which concern was further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent influx of out-of-state transplants to the State of Florida. Recent hurricanes on both coasts have caused even more stress in the availability of affordable housing inventory throughout the state.
