As the #1 in Affordable Housing, Winn cares a lot about education around the subject of workforce and middle-income housing as well. Paying the rent for a decent home is not just a challenge for low-income families. As housing affordability increasingly creates stress on middle-income families, local governments, philanthropies, and even employers are debating new strategies to address the problem. Here, The Brookings Institution gives a rundown on the difference between workforce/middle-income housing and affordable housing.
