The Broderrick/Bryte neighborhood in West Sacramento, California, has a significant Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) funded affordable housing inventory. The area contains 228 total units in LIHTC-funded projects, with 126 of these designated as low-income units. Based on the 2022 population of 9,968 and an estimated 3,819 housing units, the LIHTC-funded affordable housing represents approximately 6% of the neighborhood's estimated housing inventory.
The LIHTC program has invested substantially in this neighborhood, with project tax credits totaling $918,289. This translates to an average federal funding of about $4,028 per unit across all LIHTC-funded projects. The neighborhood has benefited from LIHTC-funded affordable housing for over three decades, with the first project, Citrus Ave, completed in 1990, and the most recent, Rivers Senior Apts, finished in 2008.
The 2000s were particularly active for affordable housing development in Broderrick/Bryte. Two notable projects from this period are Bryte Gardens Apts (2002) and Rivers Senior Apts (2008). These projects significantly expanded the affordable housing options in the area.
The LIHTC-funded housing stock in the neighborhood offers a diverse range of unit types. The inventory includes 104 one-bedroom units, 63 two-bedroom units, 48 three-bedroom units, and 7 four-bedroom units. This distribution suggests a focus on accommodating various household sizes, from individuals to larger families.
Over the past decade, the neighborhood has experienced some demographic shifts. The population has remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 9,972 and 11,068 residents. However, median income has shown a notable increase, rising from $39,697 in 2017 to $53,828 in 2022, indicating improving economic conditions for some residents.
Racial demographics have also evolved. The Hispanic population has grown from 42% in 2013 to 53% in 2022, while the white population decreased from 43% to 27% over the same period. The Asian and Black populations have remained relatively stable, each representing about 5-7% of the population in recent years.
Despite the absence of new LIHTC projects in the last decade, the existing affordable housing stock continues to play a crucial role in the neighborhood. The rising median income and shifting demographics suggest a potential need for ongoing affordable housing options to maintain community diversity and support lower-income residents amidst economic changes.
