Abstract
- Policy PointsToday's housing disparities are rooted in the increasing commodification of housing that has taken precedence over the need for shelter, a basic human right.With rising housing costs across the country, more residents are finding their monthly income going to rent, mortgage payments, property taxes, and utilities, leaving little for food and medication.Housing is a determinant of health, and with increasing housing disparities, action must be taken to ensure no individual is displaced, communities remain intact, and cities continue to thrive.
