Our Housing

Housing is at the heart of stability, dignity, and opportunity. Yet too many of the homes in our community are owned by people who don’t live here, don’t send their kids to our schools, and don’t share in our daily struggles. This map shows where absentee ownership exists in our neighborhoods. It’s not about pointing fingers—it’s about starting a real conversation: what does it mean when decisions about our housing are made from afar, and how does that shape the future of our city?
