Feeling the Pinch: Wages And Housing In New Hampshire

This report examines trends in wages and housing over the last ten years to help understand the housing crisis now facing the state. It is full of data on income trends, job growth, housing stock, and housing costs. The report was produced by the NH Housing Forum, a project of the NH Program of the American Friends Service Committee, with support from the NH Community Development Finance Authority and Providian Bank.

This report is now available on this site. You can download either the six page Executive Summary or the complete 36 page Booklet. To view either file you will need Adobe's Acrobat Reader. If you don't have it already you can get it at Adobe's web site.

Safe affordable housing is an essential component of the state's economic vitality and the strength and stability of its families and communities.
