The document discusses different approaches to measuring housing affordability. The traditional Housing Cost Income Ratio (HCIR) considers housing affordable if a household spends 30% or less of their income on housing. However, this does not account for other living expenses. The Residual Income Approach argues housing is only affordable if a household can afford other basic needs after paying for housing. Using Homer Simpson's finances as an example, the HCIR considers his housing affordable but the Residual Income Approach shows he cannot afford other necessities. The document advocates using the Residual Income Approach to better assess affordability problems and target assistance.
Swathi Narayanan and Elizabeth Yang have a total household income of $80,000.

Habitat for Humanity builds affordable homes for families in need in the Halton region of Ontario. Over 8.5% of the local population lives below the poverty line, with around 43,000 people struggling with inadequate housing. Habitat addresses this issue by providing no-interest mortgages and requiring 500 hours of "sweat equity" from partner families. This model empowers families by building their equity over time while keeping their housing costs low. The funds from mortgage payments are reinvested into building more homes through Habitat's revolving fund.

After 5, 15, and 30 years, Brother B has significantly more savings and wealth due to tax savings, equity growth, and investment returns on the money not spent on extra mortgage payments. The document advocates taking out a large mortgage and investing the equity rather than paying extra to pay off the loan early.

High Performance on a Low Budget with Gwen ShapiraScyllaDB
It is one thing to solve performance challenges when you have plenty of time, money, and expertise available. Many performance experts have deep knowledge of a specific system and work on large-scale problems where investing time and effort to get a fantastic result is the norm.
But what do you do in the opposite situation? If you are a small startup with no time or money and still need to deliver outstanding performance? When you may have experts in parts of the stack, but performance has to be delivered across the entire application and infrastructure stack?
It may be tempting to think that as a small startup, you can just ignore performance until you scale - but your customers will soon tell you otherwise. In this talk, Gwen talks about her journey from in-depth Kafka performance to leading a small team of engineers to ship a high-performance MVP. She'll share the decisions that worked well, the mistakes made, and the tools that were worth far beyond their cost.

1. The Big Idea: A new way to
measure housing affordability
Roger Valdez
2. Housing affordability versus
affordable housing
“In Britain and the United States,
affordability is often expressed in terms
of ‘affordable housing.’ But
affordability is not a characteristic of
housing—it is a relationship between
housing and people.”
Michael E. Stone, What Is Housing Affordability? The Case for the
Residual Income Approach, University of Massachusetts–Boston
3. How do we measure housing
affordability today?
The Housing Cost Income Ratio (HCIR)
HCIR is used as both an indicator and a
normative standard.
Housing is affordable if a person pays 30
percent or less of their monthly income for
housing.
4. The Simpson’s housing affordability according to HCIR
Homer earns:
$60,000 in annual income
$ 5,000 in monthly income
Homer spends per month:
$1500 on housing (30 percent of his income)
$2000 on donuts
$2000 on beer
$1000 on other food Homer spends $6500 a month
but he only earns $5000 a
month.
He is $1500 behind each
month
But based on the HCIR
approach is housing is
affordable.
He’s doing just fine.
5. The Residual Income Approach
“A household has a housing affordability
problem if it cannot meet its non-housing
needs at some basic level of adequacy
after paying for housing.”
Michael E. Stone, What Is Housing Affordability? The Case for the
Residual Income Approach, University of Massachusetts–Boston
6. The Simpson’s housing affordability using the residual income approach
Homer earns:
$60,000 in annual income
$ 5,000 in monthly income
Homer spends per month:
$1500 on housing (30 percent of his income)
$2000 on donuts
$2000 on beer
$1000 on other food Homer spends $6500 a month but
he only earns $5000 a month.
He is $1500 behind each month
Homer doesn’t have enough
money left over after paying his
housing costs to pay for other
important, essential things.
He needs housing assistance.
Or maybe he needs help buying
donuts.
7. Affordability: A real and serious problem
Family of three earns:
$42,000 in annual income
$ 3,500 in monthly income
Family spends per month1:
Housing 963
Child Care 884
Food 668
Transportation 144
Health Care 395 This family spends $3869 a month
Miscellaneous 305 but only earns $3500 a month.
Taxes 510
They are $369 behind each
month, even though their housing
costs are less than 30 percent of
their monthly income(28
percent).
Do they need assistance with
housing or childcare?

Figures from Diana Pierce, The Self-Sufficiency Standard for King
County (City of Seattle), WA 2009
8. The Residual Income Approach
Removes the assumption of a market failure (the idea that the market isn’t
producing affordability)
More comprehensively accounts for poverty and allows for better
interventions (higher wages, better health care, better child care)
Accounts for transportation and other costs that go down when living in a
compact neighborhood
Removes pressure on housing market to produce a product that many
people may not want to buy or rent (people live where they live for the
schools, proximity to work and the neighborhood not an income ratio)
This approach would allow a focus on better multifamily housing (like
courtyard housing) that is energy efficient and family friendly, even if it is
slightly more expensive than other products.
9. Location Efficiency
Center for Neighborhood Technology has a page that compares housing
costs in the region based on median income (about $50,000),
transportation, and housing costs.
10. Location Efficiency
Annual Income: $45,000
Household Size: 1
Interest Rate %: 6.778
Good credit and enough
funds for a 3% down
payment and a buyer
might qualify for an
additional $40,575 on a
mortgage in this
neighborhood.
This is How Much More
House you can Afford!
