Housing Needs Assessment

The Calhoun County Housing Needs Assessment presents an in-depth study of the housing market and existing housing conditions. 

The communities within Calhoun County are similar in demographics but display unique personalities and housing challenges, both from each other and other counties in the region. Yet, these challenges can best be met on a cooperative basis, pooling the resources and capabilities of the county and possibly the region into a unified housing program.
