What we heard from you.

In October the City asked Milwaukie residents about their housing needs, preferences, and concerns. The full summary of this survey is available here.

Of the 202 people who participated in the Engage Milwaukie Housing Needs Survey, at least half said the following issues were important for the City to focus on as it develops revised housing policies:

• Provide supportive services for people experiencing houselessness.
• Expand affordable rental housing options for households earning less than $50,000 per Year
• Preserve and maintain existing housing.
• Ensure existing and newly developed affordable housing stays affordable long term.
• Increase areas where residents can access goods and services by walking or biking.
