5-Year Affordable Housing and Community Needs Survey

The City is gathering community input to inform the 2026-2030 Consolidated Plan, which will guide how the City uses federal and local funds to create and preserve affordable housing, address homelessness, and serve our low- and moderate-income neighborhoods over the next five years.

The 5-year plan includes goals and objectives based on resident input and community needs assessments, such as:

Building affordable apartments for low-income residents
Grants to help the homeless and vulnerable populations
Locating affordable housing near transit
Geographic priority areas within the City

The City of Raleigh is estimated to receive $22.5 million in federal funding over fiscal years 2026-2030. Your input will help the City determine how best to spend these funds during the five-year period.

To access these funds, the City must submit a Consolidated Plan as an application to HUD for funding. The Consolidated Plan outlines how federal resources will address community needs identified through extensive feedback and data.

Your voice will guide the investment of this funding and help to create a thriving and equitable Raleigh!

All survey responses are anonymous.
