This interactive tool examines how building more starter homes could expand Latino homeownership across 16 U.S. metro areas. The tool focuses on households in their primary homebuying years (household heads ages 20–59), and identifies the income range where Latino homeownership increases most sharply as household income rises and the home values typically purchased by recent Latino buyers in that range.
The tool was created by Tobias Peter and Edward J. Pinto at American Enterprise Institute Housing Center, with support from Laura Arce, Senior Vice President for Economic Initiatives at UnidosUS, Mike Calhoun, President of the Center for Responsible Lending (CRL), and Sara Weiss, Vice President & Research Director CRL; Executive Director, Julian Bond Institute.
