    (2020-05) Burns, Hannah; Corder, Ian; Parker, Henry; Schneider, Benjamin
    East Central Minnesota, like other rural regions in the state and country, faces challenges with housing. For the purpose of this report, East Central Minnesota is defined as Chisago, Isanti, Kanabec, Mille Lacs and Pine counties. The region is facing a shortage of affordable housing and in some areas a lack of quality housing. To better understand these challenges, GPS::45::93, a regional economic development organization in East Central Minnesota, recruited and collaborated with graduate Public Policy and Urban and Regional Planning students at the University of Minnesota’s Humphrey School of Public Affairs to research the topic. Through the use of data gathered through interviews, literature and document review, and secondary analysis, our team developed the following findings and recommendations.
