Today, more than one in five Florida residents—nearly 5 million people—receive Social Security benefits.

Home prices and rentals have become increasingly unaffordable in Florida. This white paper explores the benefits of allowing alternative housing options, such as Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), for homeowners and communities.
