State of New York City’s Housing and Neighborhoods in 2022

The State of New York City’s Housing and Neighborhoods report, published annually by the NYU Furman Center, provides a compendium of data and analysis about New York City’s housing, land use, demographics, and quality of life for each borough and each of the city’s 59 community districts.

The report is made possible through the generous support of our sponsors.

This year’s report includes the following:

2022 Focus on New York City's Low-Density Neighborhoods

This year’s Focus report explores the diversity of New York City’s low-density neighborhoods, including the people who live in them, the housing stock of low-density neighborhoods, and the state of land use regulations in these areas. It also examines the market rate and affordable housing stock in these neighborhoods. The report sheds light on a broader conversation focused on adding new supply in the midst of a housing crisis, and how all communities can participate in this effort.

Citywide Analysis

This section provides a broad, longitudinal analysis of New York City’s housing and neighborhoods. The chapter is divided into three parts: housing development, renters and their homes, homeowners and their homes, and New Yorkers and neighborhoods.

Citywide Data and Neighborhood Data Profiles

These sections provide current and historical statistics for housing, neighborhood, and socioeconomic indicators for New York City and all its boroughs and community districts.
