At one time, the housing affordability crisis was associated with certain addresses. Often, they were in high-demand coastal cities and nearby communities. Today, though, people from all corners of the country are dealing with crushing housing costs. In the latest episode of the Boston Fed’s Six Hundred Atlantic podcast, we examine the 2025 “The State of the Nation’s Housing” report from the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University. Housing experts, including Boston Fed economist Paul Willen and Reserve Bank President and CEO Susan M. Collins, weigh in on what the crisis looks like for homeowners and renters and what can be done to ease the cost pressures.
