Most of those who rent in Johnson County do so because they can’t afford to buy their own home. That’s according to preliminary results of a countywide housing survey conducted by United Community Services of Johnson County. Some of the survey data will be compiled and presented in the nonprofit’s annual Human Services Summit next week. Launched by Johnson County, cities within the county and UCS, the 2020 Johnson County Municipalities Community Housing Study is part of a joint study and task force with Johnson County and local cities to collect opinions on housing options from people who live and/or work in the county. The study’s findings will be used for a 10-year outlook on housing that local officials can use to make policy decisions in the future.
