These demographic trends, particularly the relatively high median income and stable population, may explain the absence of additional LIHTC projects since 2007. The existing project likely continues to serve a specific segment of the population requiring affordable housing.

Zip code 12528 in Highland has a modest LIHTC-funded affordable housing inventory, consisting of 51 one-bedroom units in a single project completed in 2007. This represents less than 1% of the estimated housing stock. The area has experienced slight population growth and income fluctuations over the past decade, with a relatively high median income. Racial demographics have remained largely stable, with a notable increase in the Asian population. These factors may influence the current state of affordable housing development in the area.
