Affordable housing typically means housing that is reasonably priced for individuals and families with low to moderate incomes. This kind of housing is essential to ensure that persons at various income levels have access to safe, stable, and decent living conditions without having to spend too much of their income on housing. Affordable housing programs have limits to household income and rent.
