As the economy recovers, many are still seeking low income housing

Popular Low Income Housing Web Site Receives Record Number of Visitors

 

Nationwide (BlackNews.com) — Many economists agree that the U.S. economy is slowly recovering, but housing issues continue to plague many families across the country. According to the Low Income Housing Authority, their web site traffic at www.LowIncome.org continues to grow and last month received an all-time record number of visitors.

One report, issued by the Urban Institute, says that up to 40% of all low-income families in the United States continue to experience hardships related to housing. This literally means that millions of people across the country are in bad economic situations, and are likely looking for and/or already living in low income housing and apartments.

To address this, the National Low Income Housing Authority launched their web site in 2010. The site now lists over 50,000 properties in its online database. The available properties are located in all 50 states, most of them concentrated in urban areas.

The web site also offers valuable information, resources, and tips on how to find and apply for low income housing programs, affordable housing programs, and other similar government assistance programs.
