HIGHLIGHTS FROMTHISMONTH
FROMDEEDA: At the heart of every story we write at Community Impact Newspaper , you will nd common themes regarding growth and a ordability. This month’s edition is no di erent. In one of our front-page stories, City Hall Reporter Ben Thompson looks into the pressure piling on Austin renters who are struggling to cover rising rent prices as eviction moratoriums and other protections lift roughly two years into a pandemic. Continuing inside (see Page 24), he also checks in with the landlord community to see how they are navigating tenant relationships with their own bottom lines. In this fragile housing environment and unprecedented growth, questions of a ordability will inevitably follow, and we will continue to seek answers to help you better understand the future implications.
