"Home prices in the Omaha metro have been rising more than 3x faster than median family incomes (11% spike in 2022), in a city long touted as an affordable place to live. “This is what we are known for, and it has quietly been slipping out of our fingers,” said Meridith Dillon."

[Front Porch Investments @FrontPorchInv]

"Every Nebraskan wants and needs a good and safe place to call home. But that basic necessity is increasingly proving elusive for thousands all across Nebraska."

Thrilled about the Native Omahan building / Greenwood project. Prime example of redevelopment priorities of a community matching what the residents want and need. We are an excited funding partner & can't wait to see "open for business"! https://t.co/V5zkqIHVBt via @NewsladyTay

I’ve lived outside several times with my family. Why? Nearby family safe shelters were full, one shelter refused us because we’ve been too many times, and our “transitional housing” lasted 2 years. Available shelters housed men with children.
