Alaska's Housing Shortage | Alaska Insight

Season 2024 Episode 1 | 26m 46s

Across Alaska, it’s a challenge to find affordable housing. The lack of housing drives people into overcrowded homes and homelessness, or out-of-state. Some officials have begun referring to it as a housing crisis. Host Lori Townsend is joined by Anchorage Assembly Member Dr. Daniel Volland, and Nolan Klouda, Executive Director of the University of Alaska Center for Economic Development.
