2025 to 2035 Affordable Housing Calculations

The Department of Community Affairs (DCA) is pleased to provide the non-binding calculations of municipalities’ present and prospective need for affordable housing using the formulas outlined in P.L 2024, Chapter 2. DCA carefully analyzed the data sources contained in the law and produced an analysis that provides a fair and accurate presentation of the affordable housing responsibilities  established by the legislation that Governor Murphy signed in March 2024.

 

The Department’s publication of the calculations by the October 20, 2024 deadline reflects DCA’s commitment to providing all 564 municipalities with the data, information, and support they need to meet their affordable housing responsibilities under the law. The calculations give municipalities and developers more certainty, which enables smarter planning around where housing should be built.

The DCA calculations serve as guidance for municipalities as they plan for affordable housing development during the next decade.
