  • City of Duluth 2016 Housing Indicator Report
    City of Duluth 2016 Housing Indicator Report Prepared by: Released: June 2018 Community Planning Division City Hall Room 208 Duluth, MN 55802 http://www.duluthmn.gov/community-planning/ Executive Summary Purpose The Community Planning Division publishes the Housing Indicator Report annually to provide a snapshot of the current housing markets and to understand how those markets have changed over time. We include demographic and workforce statistics to provide context about what kinds of housing options are available and affordable to a diverse range of our community members. Key Findings Average and median home sale price have gradually increased over the past decade and while homeowners’ median household income seems to have stagnated in the past few years, average homeownership costs still appear to be affordable to middle income homeowners. From 2014 to 2015 the average market rent increased drastically by almost $100 a month and while it continued to increase in 2016 to $920, it was a less drastic increase than in the previous year. Average market rate rental housing has not been affordable to the majority of renter households for at least a decade and that trend continues in 2016. This year we focused on some of the systemic issues that contributed to creating the disparities and the wealth gap we see between the higher and lower income neighborhoods in our city. With a better understanding of these disparities and their causes, there can be more informed decisions made about the allocation of services and resources. Examining these historical disparities also provides more context and insight to our housing market.

Among those present was Mayor Samuel F. Snively, the man chiefly responsible for the construction and development of the unique boulevard system. ROAD Through personal determination ROAD and a remarkable talent for rais- ing donations, Snively brought MARK RYAN more than three-quarters of the parkway to fruition, helping establish one of Duluth’s most noted landmarks. Terrace Parkway, as the initial portion of the road was first called, was the brainchild of William K. Rogers, a native of Ohio who became president of the State Bank of Duluth and the city’s first park board. In 1888 Rogers had presented a plan for a hilltop boulevard that would follow the ancient gravel shore- line left by glacial Lake Namadji, a larger ancestor of present-day Lake Superior. A companion park stretching along Lake Superior’s shore from Seventh Avenue East to Fortieth Avenue East would be connected by per- pendicular links following several rivers and creeks that plunged from the crest of the hills toward the lake. In the late 1880s Mr. Ryan is a writer and film maker who Winding Mission Creek Road, native-stone resides in Minneapolis.

This study focuses on an analysis of demographic trends and current market conditions to support the development of residential units in the Downtown. The study reviews growth trends and resident demographic characteristics, reviews current housing market conditions for for‐sale and rental housing, inventories Downtown population, inventories pending housing developments and quantifies the number of housing units that could be supported in Downtown to 2030. This report identifies demand for housing that would be generated by the draw area population in addition to demand for second residences that would come primarily from households residing outside of the Duluth area that would want to live in Duluth either year‐round or seasonally. Detailed findings are found in the body of the report. We have enjoyed conducting this study for you and are available to answer any questions or provide additional information.
