Zip code 17070 in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, has a small LIHTC funded affordable housing inventory, covering less than 1% of the estimated housing units. The area has seen two LIHTC projects developed over two decades, with the most recent completed in 2011. While the population has grown slightly and become more diverse over the past decade, the rising median income might suggest a changing economic landscape. The limited LIHTC activity in recent years could indicate that other forms of housing are meeting the area's needs or that priorities for affordable housing development have shifted to other locations within the state.
