The survey was fielded to 5,079 U.S. residents who either moved in the last year, plan to move in the next year, or rent their home. This report focuses mainly on the 3,949 respondents (78% of the total) who indicated they are \u201cfor\u201d policies that promote building more housing. In addition to the question about whether respondents are for or against building promotion policies, this report hones in on two questions. 1) \u201cHow would you feel if a new large apartment complex were built in your neighborhood?\u201d Respondents could choose \u201cpositive,\u201d \u201cneutral\u201d or \u201cnegative.\u201d 2) How would you feel if that new large apartment complex in your neighborhood was specifically built for low-income housing? Respondents could choose \u201cmore negative,\u201d \u201csame as any other large apartment complex,\u201d or \u201cmore positive.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Broken down by homeowners versus renters, 74% of owners support policies that promote building more housing, compared with 80% of renters. One-quarter (25%) of owners would feel positive about a new apartment complex built in their neighborhood, about on par with 28% of renters. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two in five (40%) owners would feel negative about a new apartment complex built in their neighborhood, and 35% would feel neutral. That\u2019s compared with about one-quarter (24%) of renters feeling negative about the prospect of a new apartment complex nearby, and nearly half (49%) who would feel neutral.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The U.S. had an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/the-us-can-solve-its-housing-crisis-it-just-needs-to-start-building\/2022\/12\/30\/4d5b3940-8866-11ed-b5ac-411280b122ef_story.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">estimated housing shortfall<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of 3.8 million units as of 2021, and both buying and renting a home is more expensive in 2023 than it\u2019s ever been. Prices <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/housing-market-update-home-prices-increase-low-inventory\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">continue to rise<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> even in the midst of elevated mortgage rates and low demand because there aren\u2019t enough homes. Building more housing would narrow the gap between supply and demand, and help make housing more affordable. Policies that promote building include loosening zoning restrictions, allowing accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and enacting tax incentives that would encourage developers to build.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPersonal preferences for things like a quiet neighborhood or old-fashioned charm are often at odds with building new housing,\u201d said Redfin Chief Economist Daryl Fairweather. \u201cEven though so many Americans believe in building new dense housing in theory, that ideology isn\u2019t strong enough to outweigh their own desires\u2013especially when they don\u2019t stand to directly benefit from the building. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so difficult to overcome community opposition to dense new housing, even during a time when so many Americans <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/yimbys-winning-lower-house-prices-rents-build-more-homes-neighborhoods-2023-9#:~:text=The%20crux%20of%20the%20YIMBY,all%20is%20single%2Dfamily%20zoning\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">believe in<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the Yes In My Backyard (YIMBY) movement.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Most Democrats and Republicans are pro-building\u2013but not necessarily in their neighborhood<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Broken down by political affiliation, the majority of both Democrats and Republicans support policies that promote building more housing.

Roughly two in five Democrats (43%) and Republicans (40%) would feel neutral.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Republicans are more likely than Democrats to be against a large new complex in their neighborhood, the South\u2013which is made up largely of Republican-leaning states\u2013is building far more homes than other parts of the country. States in the South issued 576,000 single-family building permits in August, more than twice as many as any other region and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/construction\/nrc\/pdf\/newresconst.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">up 10%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> year over year. That\u2019s compared to 4% increases in the West and Midwest and a 5% decline in the Northeast.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere are YIMBYs and NIMBYs on both sides of the aisle,\u201d Fairweather said. \u201cThat\u2019s part of the reason it\u2019s so difficult to push through policies that promote dense housing. But all types of building ultimately <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/86836af4-6b52-49e8-a8f0-8aec6181dbc5?shareType=nongift\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">help<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with housing supply and affordability, even building more single-family homes. The more homes that exist, the more likely it is a person can find one to fit their needs and their budget. So even though Republicans are more likely to oppose dense housing, the South is doing more than other regions to create more housing and help with affordability. \u00a0Looking forward, governments in some red<i> and<\/i> blue states are prioritizing affordable housing. In Montana, for instance, a wave of bipartisan legislation to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2023-04-28\/montana-s-yimby-revolt-aims-to-head-off-a-housing-crisis\">reform zoning<\/a> is making its way through the government, and California lawmakers have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/adu-tiny-homes-affordable-housing-california-laws-2023-2\">eliminated barriers<\/a> to building ADUs.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Democrats are nearly twice as likely as Republicans to feel <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">more positive <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">if the apartment complex being built in their neighborhood was for low-income residents.
