Worries that there's no way to own a home top the Kinder Institute's 2023 survey of Houston residents.
The 42nd annual Kinder Institute's Houston Area Survey cites rising housing costs, an unpredictable economy and crime as three of the main concerns of area residents.Access to affordable housing and an unstable economy were the main concerns cited by Houstonians in the latest annual Houston Area Survey released Monday by the Kinder Institute for Urban Research.
The housing market is not what it was 10 years ago, when a majority of Houstonians were able to afford; however, Potter said, living in the city is not yet fundamentally unaffordable. Those who said they expected to have a better financial future typically have a higher level of education or certification, “If I am around with a college degree my last three years went well and I am optimistic about the next three – it’s the folks without degrees that are high school graduates that are at the lower end of the scale.”
According to Potter, many of the social issue trends also reflected an awareness of others’ situations as 80 percent of those participating supported pathways toward citizenship for those living in country without documentation and 58 percent of respondents reported no moral opposition to abortion.
