Va.: Albemarle Boasts Largest Planning Staff - Lowest Housing Affordability
Neil Williamson of the Free Enterprise Forum in Charlottesville, Virginia shared this new report with me, and you might find it interesting as well.
Albemarle County ranks lowest in housing affordability in the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) according to a new report issued today by The Free Enterprise Forum. The "Locked Out" report finds that just 16% of Albemarle homes are available to families earning median income. The report also finds Albemarle County has the largest planning department staff, the largest comprehensive plan and the longest approval time for subdivisions. Fluvanna County had the highest percentage of homes available to families earning median income.
