In-depth on housing shortage in Rochester
Rochester ranks as the toughest home-buying market in the country, according to a new analysis by Bankrate. One reason is a lack of supply. Homebuilders are flocking to areas of the country with booming job growth, and Rochester is not one of them.
News10NBC has done several recent stories on how leaders in the area are aiming to address the housing shortage. Recently, Rochester leaders cut the ribbon on affordable housing at a once-deteriorating building at the corner of East Main Street and North Clinton Avenue. In addition, Rochester has gotten $20 million in state funding to demolish the former psychiatric center on Elmwood Avenue and replace it with 400 to 500 housing units.
