The above map depicts the percent of “affordable” housing in Connecticut. Affordable housing in Connecticut are developments that provide financial assistance to residents who would otherwise have difficulty paying for housing. On the map, the municipalities with a darker shade are those that provide more affordable housing than the municipalities with lighter shades. Hartford has the most developments that meet Connecticut’s criteria of affordable housing at 37.24 % and is followed by New Haven with 29% affordable housing. With Hartford providing so much affordable housing, it means there will be large concentrations of people with lower incomes in Hartford. Yet if we take a look at West Hartford, they only provide 5.61% of affordable housing. What this means is that Connecticut residents looking for affordable housing will most likely take residency in Hartford or New Haven because that is where the affordable housing is located. Many of the municipalities in Connecticut are not providing much affordable housing and it is creating a geographical divide between those with low incomes and those with high incomes.
