About this listen
Following the annual report card for the region’s housing supply, housing czar April Norton is back to delve into the good, bad and hopeful on Jackson Hole housing.
The good: Last year almost 300 people got affordable homes and deed-restricted units made up 63% of the county’s new home construction. In the last 10 years, five homes have been built for every new person added to Teton County’s population.
The not so good: The value of a free market home has gone up 260% in the last decade. And with a steady job increase, less workers actually live in the county.
Norton, director of the town and county’s housing department, is back to talk state of the county’s housing with Jackson’s former mayor, Pete Muldoon.
