If current breakdown of owner and renter households continues, City will need a mix of
ownership and rental housing
If recent trends continue, City will need to focus more on the creation of rental housing and
smaller units
Given low vacancy rates in both owner and renter markets, there is room for growth in both
segments
City must also consider a percentage of new employees will want to live in Nashua as well
