Any housing analysis of Nevada County will quickly reveal that the greatest need is for workforce dwellings and starter homes because that is where a huge void exists.
The Regional Housing Authority, with the county as a cooperating partner, has been moving to establish direly needed subsidized housing for local homeless citizens and low-income senior citizens.
Meanwhile, the only other local housing additions of any significance involve the building of large homes that gobble up too much land. Those are the homes developers are adding because they are the only housing type from which they can pencil out a decent profit.

IRHA, the Interior Regional Housing Authority is helping folks with another chance to apply for rental assistance, and the deadline is Monday (March 15.)
IRHA is one of Alaska’s tribally-designated housing entities. Normally, they are helping renters and homeowners through NAHASDA, the Native American Housing Assistance and Self Determination Act.
But applications for this program are pandemic-related and a little more open - Programs Officer, Annie Silas, says it is not only for tribal members.
“Everybody is eligible. It doesn’t have any kind of preference who applies, because it is from the Department of Treasury. The only thing is they have to be under the 80% income, and only renters.”
