Opportunity Rich Neighborhoods (Transportation & Housing)

Opportunity-rich and inclusive neighborhoods are essential to supporting families’ well-being and upward mobility. Access to stable, quality, and affordable housing provides a foundation for physical, mental, and financial health. Access to reliable transportation can expand opportunities and reduce barriers to employment, education, healthcare, and other essential resources. Indicators related to housing costs, housing stability, and transportation access provide insight into whether communities offer the conditions needed for residents to thrive.

Transportation indicators have been developed in partnership with the local Transportation Impact Collective, with representation from municipal government, local advocacy organizations, and local transportation agencies.
