In Zahlen
The most comprehensive federal housing law approved by the United States Congress since 1990 went into effect despite President Donald Trump's refusal to sign it. The new law includes regulatory adjustments, pilot programs, and targeted loan and grant packages aimed at encouraging housing construction nationwide.
Experts estimate that the country needs millions of housing units to bring housing costs down to affordable levels. A large portion of this deficit manifests in the urban centers of California. According to data from the National Association of Realtors, the national median home price reached an all-time high of $440,600 in June, while in California, this figure broke a record of $930,260 the previous month.
The law's impacts on California include significant provisions such as withdrawing grants from cities that do not build and providing incentives to those that build more. Supporters hope these steps will spur the country to rebuild and contribute to solving the problem.
