Subsidized low income housing units, often referred to as “affordable housing”, are housing units in which rental costs are partially or wholly subsidized by public funds and agencies. These units are intended to provide support for households who are overburdened by rent but also service senior citizens, individuals with severe mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, and others who require similar assistance. As such, knowing the total amount and location of these units is imperative to understanding the current status of affordable housing in Los Angeles, as well as the creation of future policy surrounding affordable housing and overall dwelling unit production citywide.

In 2015, the Southern California Association of Non Profit Housing (SCANPH) created a database of all affordable housing units in Los Angeles, categorized by the funding source or local agency which oversees each unit. In 2018, Pacific Urbanism recreated the 2015 database in order to determine the location of all affordable housing units in Los Angeles County, organized by city, Los Angeles City Council District, and Los Angeles Community Plan Area. This study, performed in 2020, is the most recent inventory of affordable housing units in Los Angeles, using the most current datasets from corresponding agencies.
