Fight for Affordable Housing
New Hampshire is no stranger to the housing crisis.
23,500 unit housing deficit across the state.
40 units available for every 100 low-income renters.
Less than 1% vacancy rate for 1 + 2 bedroom apartments
$440,000 median home price in NH
$1,500 median monthly rent
Key facts
Why we need action
With a housing deficit of over 23,500 units and a vacancy rate of less than 1%, the Granite State is grappling with a significant shortage of housing. And the deficit is only projected to grow, reaching a housing shortfall of 90,000 units by 2040.
This scarcity is not only a concern for homeowners and renters, but also for business owners and the broader community. In particular, this situation is placing a heavy burden on young folks in New Hampshire and is having a profound impact on the state's workforce.
