Our Stories of the Housing Crisis shows how over 700 local households, mostly working families with children, have been affected by rising housing costs. Homeowners suffered from rate hikes, while renters have been trapped by the unaffordable market. Households cut spending on both extras and essentials and tried to earn more, but ultimately many have fallen behind. These Perth-Huron households are ready for this unfair crisis to end, supporting urgent action, and particularly new affordable housing. Featuring dozens of quotes from real Perth-Huron families, Our Stories of the Housing Crisis captures the local experience of this difficult time and urges us to change things.
