2025年最严峻住房需求报告：美国低收入租房危机全景。Worst case need is a longstanding measure of the extent of unmet needs for affordable rental housing of adequate quality, tracked since 1978. Housing affordability is primarily made possible through housing offered in the private market at affordable rents, increases in income caused by robust economic growth, or a combination of the two. Renter households are defined as having worst case needs for such housing if they have very low incomes—household incomes at or below 50 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI)—do not receive government housing assistance, and either pay more than one-half of their income for rent, or live in severely inadequate conditions, or both.

Worst Case Housing Needs: 2025 Report to Congress examines trends in and causes of worst case needs using the most recent data from the 2023 American Housing Survey (AHS). 2 This report finds that in 2023, worst case housing needs essentially remain at the all-time high level of 8.5 million households reached in 2021. The number of households with worst case needs has averaged 8 million since the 2007–09 Great Recession, well above the previous average of 5 million households. The unmet need for decent and safe housing that the average American can afford continues to outpace income growth and the ability of federal, state, and local governments to moderate the persistent rise in housing costs.
