Baby Boomers have dominated our country for the better part of the last five decades. Many credit the exceptional wealth generated by this cohort for fueling America’s strong economy and providing opportunity. Many others harbor negative views, particularly when it comes to social issues such as affordable housing. The cohort with the most power 20 years from now will be the youngest Millennials and the oldest Gen Zers with 72M 40–60 year-olds—larger than the Boomer generation. A 2022 NHPF study found that this group has a passion for activism, supporting human rights and social causes, with 33% supporting affordable housing based on “societal benefits ofdecreased poverty and crime and increased economic opportunity.” Read more in the industry report: https://ow.ly/zUFH50SyZZl #affordablehousing #thenhpfoundation
