The first step in creating a housing plan is understanding who the plan is for. This includes assessing who is living in Massachusetts today, what kinds of households they form, what their housing needs are, and what unique challenges face certain household segments. Additionally, it is important to explore the demographic factors that have contributed to growth and demand over the last two decades.
