Central Ohio Regional Housing Strategy

The Central Ohio Regional Housing Strategy was a collaborative effort by public and private partners across the Central Ohio Region, led by MORPC, the City of Columbus, and Franklin County, to comprehensively evaluate and identify strategies to meet current and future housing needs. The process documented existing and projected housing needs in the region, grounded by both quantitative and qualitative assessments to understand housing supply and demand, barriers to development, and the regional housing finance landscape.  The strategy's Implementer’s Toolkit  presents the entire range of potential housing actions and allows users to explore and filter them based on several criteria, such as geography, area characteristics, housing issue, or type of action. Further engagement with a broader range of community members is ongoing to advance the strategy's vision and ensure implementation is grounded in the full range of Central Ohioans’ lived experiences.
