Housing & Childcare Reports give you nontraditional workforce context that matters to employers and site selectors: where workers can live and how families manage childcare.

Housing

  • Inventory & costs: Housing units, tenure, values, rents, and permits.
  • Affordability: Cost burdens for owners and renters across income ranges.
  • Market conditions: Supply indicators that affect recruitment and retention.

Childcare

  • Supply vs need: Childcare capacity, estimated demand, and the gap between them.
  • Costs: Typical costs for center‑based and family‑based care.
  • Workforce impact: Links between childcare access and labor force participation.

These reports complement Demographic & Workforce Reports and can be included in Proposals and Community Pages to tell a more complete story about readiness.
