The Washington, D.C., metropolitan area now stands as the nation's strongest regional economy. This economic prosperity has generated tremendous opportunities -- and tremendous challenges. Home prices and rents are rising faster than incomes, creating serious hardship for working families. And the region's best-paying jobs are unevenly distributed, resulting in more environmental degradation, more strain on infrastructure, and more stress on families. The third edition of Housing in the Nation's Capital highlights potential strategies for tackling these challenges. It aims to provoke a focused, sustained dialogue among the region's policy-makers, business leaders, community-based organizations, and advocates.
