Immigration enforcement collides with US housing shortage
Original: Why immigration enforcement is colliding with the housing shortage
Housing industry analysts are highlighting how stepped-up immigration enforcement is worsening the housing shortage, as removed or frightened-off immigrant workers shrink the construction labor pool and immigrant households leave rental markets, tightening supply further. The discussion centers on the tension between hardline enforcement policies and efforts to bring housing costs down, with builders and economists warning the two goals undercut each other.
Why now: Ongoing immigration raids and deportations are raising concerns about their impact on construction labor and housing affordability.
