Columbus Has Room To Grow
Columbus has taken action to make housing more fair, affordable, and available, for ALL. From laws protecting renters to pilot programs that create backyard homes and support faith-based development, Housing For All is about building a city where neighbors can stay, grow, and thrive.
​
Here is an update on what's passed, what's coming, and where you can turn for help.
Housing Justice Looks Like:
ACCESS
FOR ALL
Housing opportunity includes more than just price — it includes the ability to live near work, schools, transit, and the people and places that shape everyday life.
PRESERVED AFFORDABILITY
Stability matters. We are protecting the ability for long-time residents to stay rooted in the communities they helped build.
EMPOWERING COMMUNITY
Progress happens when partners — developers, neighborhoods, nonprofits, and policy leaders — work together to expand housing options responsibly and with intention.

ABOUT
Columbus is growing—and we believe growth should mean stability, belonging, and opportunity for everyone. Housing For All connects policy to people, sharing real stories of how legislation is creating affordable paths to homeownership, protecting longtime residents, and making room for more neighbors without displacing the ones who already call our city home. Led by Columbus City Council, this campaign is about building a future where every resident has a place to thrive, and where growth is guided by community voices, smart policy, and shared responsibility.
Housing is a human right!
