Five in 2025: Options That Every Westchester City, Town, and Village Can Take to Address the Housing Shortage

If every community in Westchester County increased its housing stock by just 1% a year over the next 5 years, it would generate 17,000 new units of badly needed housing. This is clearly achievable. In fact, several communities in Westchester are already on track to increase their housing supply by 5-7% in that time. If we learn from the cities, towns, and villages that are already moving forward, we can build the housing we need – to everyone’s benefit! Learn How Here.
