New Jersey Housing Units Authorized
In recent years, multifamily housing
with 5 or more units surpassed
single family housing production.
However…
…“Missing Middle” housing
development (principally, 2 to 4 unit
structures) has greatly lagged behind the
production of other housing typologies.

Key Housing Demand Age Cohorts
DEMAND
Over the next 20 years, much of
the projected population growth
driving new housing demand
will be among aging Millennials
and Baby Boomers.
DEMAND
Changing household size, demographics and consumer
preferences require a greater variety of housing choices.
Millennials
• Young, highly
educated, technology-
driven members of the
population desire
mobile, walkable
lifestyles.
Baby Boomers
• Americans are working
and living longer, and
they want to stay
mobile and active in
their later years.
Diverse
Households
• The number of multi-
generational
households in the U.S.
has been on the rise
since 1940.
Unsatisfied
Suburbanites
• A growing demand for
a walkable lifestyle has
the potential to
transform sprawling
suburbs into walkable
communities.
DEMAND
Source: Urban Land Institute. What’s Next at the Local
There is a mismatch between growing demand for housing in
urbanized walkable neighborhoods and where the majority of our
housing stock exists – suburbia.
Single-family homes located in conventional
suburbs make up 90% of the current housing
stock available in the U.S., yet more and more,
consumers are seeking non-single-family
housing options that offer walkable lifestyle.
Walkable Context Small-Footprint Buildings Lower Perceived Density Smaller, Well-Designed Units
Fewer Off-Street Parking
Spaces
Simple Construction Creates Community Marketable
CHARACTERISTICS So what do building types have in common?
ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks?
Distributed throughout a block
with single-family homes
ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks?
Using a block comprised exclusively of Missing
Middle types to transition to a commercial corridor
ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks?
Placed on the end-grain of a single-family block
ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks?
Using Missing Middle types to transition from
single-family homes to higher-density housing
CHALLENGES
Entitlement
• Housing developers
widely acknowledge that
there is limited available
land zoned appropriately
for missing middle
housing in metro areas
Economics
• The high cost of
development, including
construction materials,
labor, land, utilities, and
fees, is a substantial
barrier to housing
production.
Financing
• For homeowners who
want to add detached
accessory dwelling units
or additional internal
units, financing these
improvements may be
challenging.
External
• While beyond local
control, some state
building code standards
may present challenges
for accessible missing
middle housing.
Financial Feasibility and Fiscal Impact Considerations
Zoning Matters
• Facilitating appropriate density through the zoning code is often more
beneficial to (and desired by) developers than a tax abatement. “Middle
Missing” housing is highly dependent upon economies of scale.
Fiscally Friendly
• “Missing Middle” housing, generally, is going to be net positive to a
municipality and school district. Further, adding these units to a locality
is also a supportive measure for local businesses which depend upon
households.
Supports Business
Retention and
Recruitment Efforts
• If businesses are to be successful in retaining and recruiting talent, long-
term, there must be a sufficient inventory of quality affordable housing
within a 20-minute drive of the employment center.

  • 12. DEMAND Changing household size, demographics and consumer preferences require a greater variety of housing choices. Millennials • Young, highly educated, technology- driven members of the population desire mobile, walkable lifestyles. Baby Boomers • Americans are working and living longer, and they want to stay mobile and active in their later years. Diverse Households • The number of multi- generational households in the U.S. has been on the rise since 1940. Unsatisfied Suburbanites • A growing demand for a walkable lifestyle has the potential to transform sprawling suburbs into walkable communities.
  • 13. DEMAND Source: Urban Land Institute. What’s Next at the Local There is a mismatch between growing demand for housing in urbanized walkable neighborhoods and where the majority of our housing stock exists – suburbia. Single-family homes located in conventional suburbs make up 90% of the current housing stock available in the U.S., yet more and more, consumers are seeking non-single-family housing options that offer walkable lifestyle.
  • 14. Walkable Context Small-Footprint Buildings Lower Perceived Density Smaller, Well-Designed Units Fewer Off-Street Parking Spaces Simple Construction Creates Community Marketable CHARACTERISTICS So what do building types have in common?
  • 15. ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks? Distributed throughout a block with single-family homes
  • 16. ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks? Using a block comprised exclusively of Missing Middle types to transition to a commercial corridor
  • 17. ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks? Placed on the end-grain of a single-family block
  • 18. ASSEMBLY How does Missing Middle Housing integrate into existing or new blocks? Using Missing Middle types to transition from single-family homes to higher-density housing
  • 19. CHALLENGES Entitlement • Housing developers widely acknowledge that there is limited available land zoned appropriately for missing middle housing in metro areas Economics • The high cost of development, including construction materials, labor, land, utilities, and fees, is a substantial barrier to housing production. Financing • For homeowners who want to add detached accessory dwelling units or additional internal units, financing these improvements may be challenging. External • While beyond local control, some state building code standards may present challenges for accessible missing middle housing.
  • 20. Financial Feasibility and Fiscal Impact Considerations Zoning Matters • Facilitating appropriate density through the zoning code is often more beneficial to (and desired by) developers than a tax abatement. “Middle Missing” housing is highly dependent upon economies of scale. Fiscally Friendly • “Missing Middle” housing, generally, is going to be net positive to a municipality and school district. Further, adding these units to a locality is also a supportive measure for local businesses which depend upon households. Supports Business Retention and Recruitment Efforts • If businesses are to be successful in retaining and recruiting talent, long- term, there must be a sufficient inventory of quality affordable housing within a 20-minute drive of the employment center.
  • 21. The Missing MiddleEXPLORING THE US'S HOUSING CRISIS Thank you.

Editor's Notes

  1. To calculate the total number of units under-produced from 2000 to 2015, we estimated each state’s historic relationship between the production of housing units (supply) and a host of demand-side indicators using an econometric statistical model. We then calculated each state’s baseline housing production through 2000 and forecasted the number of units that would have been produced in 2015 if each market maintained its historic equilibrium. Then using the actual number of housing units in 2015, we calculated the total units that were under- or over-produced from 2000 to 2015 at the state level.

  3. Missing Middle Housing consists of multi-unit housing types such as duplexes, fourplexes, bungalow courts, and mansion apartments that are not bigger than a large house, that are integrated throughout most walkable pre-1940s neighborhoods, often integrated into blocks with primarily single-family homes, and that provide diverse housing choices and generate enough density to support transit and locally-serving commercial amenities. Although many of these are a common feature in pre-war building stocks, these housing types have become much less common (hence the “missing”). The term was coined by architect and urban planner Daniel Parolek, Principal and Founder of Opticos Design, Inc.

  5. Singles, childless couples, and empty nesters have two things in common: They are growing in number, and they want a unique type of home. Single-family homes located in conventional suburbs make up 90% of the current housing stock available in the United States, yet more and more, consumers are seeking non-single-family housing options that offer a walkable lifestyle.
  6. Walkable Context Buyers and renters of these housing types often trade square footage for proximity to services and amenities. Small-Footprint Buildings Missing Middle housing types generally have a similar size footprint to single-family homes. Lower Perceived Density Due to the small footprint of the building types and the fact that they are usually mixed with a variety of building types even on an individual block. Smaller, Well-Designed Units Most Missing Middle housing types have smaller unit sizes. Fewer Off-Street Parking Spaces They are built in walkable neighborhoods with proximity to transportation options and commercial amenities. They should not provide more than one parking space per unit. Simple Construction Missing Middle Housing is simply constructed (Type V), which increases affordability when units are sold or rented. Creates Community Growing market of single-person households (nearly 30% of all households) that want to be part of a community. Marketable Because of the increasing demand from baby boomers and millennials, as well as shifting household demographics, the market is demanding more walkable places to live.
  7. Missing Middle buildings typically have a footprint not larger than a large single-family home, making it easy to integrate them into existing neighborhoods, as well as serve as a way for the neighborhood to transition to higher-density and main street contexts.

  11. Economic: The floor on home prices is ultimately set by the actual costs of building new housing. Fannie Mae reported an average of $192 per square foot for apartment buildings in 2017. This translates directly to monthly rent: depending on the assumptions you make, the minimum viable rent for an average-sized apartment in that building might easily be over $1,500 per month, or even $2,000.
