INTRODUCTION A. PURPOSE This Evansville Housing Needs Assessment involves an update of key work elements from the original (2014) Evansville Housing Needs Assessment completed by our firm on behalf of the city of Evansville (Indiana) Department of Metropolitan Development. This is the fourth update of the Housing Needs Assessment. The original report was last updated in March of 2018. This updated report intends to: Present and evaluate past, current and projected detailed demographic characteristics of Evansville. Present and evaluate economic characteristics and trends of Evansville. Determine current characteristics of all major housing components within Evansville (for-sale/ownership and rental housing alternatives). Calculate a housing gap by tenure and income segment within Evansville. By accomplishing the study’s objectives, area stakeholders, local public officials, area employers, and private housing developers can: 1) better understand Evansville’s evolving housing market, 2) modify or expand Evansville’s housing policies, and 3) enhance and/or expand Evansville’s housing market to meet future housing needs. B. METHODOLOGIES The following methods were used by Bowen National Research to collect and analyze data for this study: Study Area Delineation The primary geographic scope of this study is the city of Evansville (44.6 square miles), which is referred to as the Primary Study Area (PSA). Because of the size of the city and some of the unique attributes within portions of the city, we have divided the PSA in to five separate submarkets: Central Submarket, East Submarket, Near East Submarket, North Submarket, and West Submarket. These five submarkets, which are compared with each other and with the overall city of Evansville, are delineated in Section III of this report. We have also provided analysis of three districts or designated areas in Addendum E, which include Downtown, the Arts District, and the Jacobsville Redevelopment District. I-1 Demographic Information Demographic data for population, households, housing, crime, and employment was secured from ESRI, Incorporated, the 2000 and 2010 United States Census, Applied Geographic Solutions, U.S. Department of Commerce, and the American Community Survey. Estimates for 2018 and projections for 2023 are also provided. This data has been used in its primary form and by Bowen National Research for secondary calculations. All sources are referenced throughout the report and in Addendum C of this report. Employment Information Employment information was obtained and evaluated for various geographic areas that were part of this overall study. This information included data related to wages by occupation, employment by job sector, total employment, unemployment rates, identification of top employers, and identification of large-scale job expansions or contractions. Most information was obtained through the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, Bowen National Research also conducted numerous interviews with local stakeholders familiar with employment characteristics and trends of the Evansville area. Housing Component Definitions This study is concerned with two major housing components: 1) for-sale/ownership (both single-family and multifamily) and 2) rental (both multifamily apartments and smaller, non-conventional units). For-sale/ownership housing includes single- family homes and condominiums. Multifamily rentals include single-family homes and multifamily apartments (generally 20+ units per building). Note that for the purposes of this analysis, we provide supplemental senior care housing information, including congregate care, assisted living and nursing home market data. Housing Supply Documentation During January and February of 2019, Bowen National Research conducted telephone research, as well as on-line research, to update key metrics of the Evansville housing supply. This research involved an update of the properties identified in our analysis and the addition of new properties. The following data was collected on each property. 1. Property Information: Name, address, total units, and number of floors 2. Owner/Developer and/or Property Manager: Name and telephone number 3. Population Served (i.e. seniors vs. family, low-income vs. market-rate, etc.) 4. Available Amenities/Features: Both in-unit and within the overall project 5. Years Built and Renovated (if applicable) 6. Vacancy Rates 7. Distribution of Units by Bedroom Type 8. Square Feet and Number of Bathrooms by Bedroom Type I-2 9. Gross Rents or Price Points by Bedroom Type 10. Property Type 11. Quality Ratings* 12. GPS Locations *Quality ratings used in this study were established after a careful examination of the housing properties and their surrounding neighborhoods. Factors influencing the ratings include curb appeal, unit and property amenities, age, interior and exterior building conditions, parking arrangements, architectural design, landscaping and grounds, management presence, accessibility, visibility, signage, public infrastructure, condition of adjacent properties, neighborhood interviews, and area services. Information regarding for-sale single-family homes was collected by Bowen National Research in-office staff during the aforementioned research period. Home listings were gleaned from realtor.com and MLS listings. Housing Demand Based on the demographic data for both 2018 and 2023, and taking into consideration the housing data from our field survey of area housing alternatives, we are able to project the potential number of new units the Evansville market can support. Rental Housing – We included renter household growth, the number of units required for a balanced market, and the need for replacement housing as the demand components for new rental housing units. As part of this analysis, we accounted for vacancies reported among all rental alternatives and considered product in the development pipeline. We concluded this analysis by providing the number of units that the market can support by three different income segments (less than $25,000, $25,000 to $49,999, and $50,000 and higher). For-Sale Housing – We considered potential demand from new owner-occupied household growth, the number of units required for a balanced market, and need for replacement housing in our estimates for new for-sale housing. We deducted the estimated number of available for-sale housing to yield a net support base of potential for-sale housing. Demand estimates were provided for three income stratifications (less than $30,000, $30,000 to $59,999, and $60,000 and higher). I-3 C. REPORT LIMITATIONS The intent of this report is to collect and analyze significant levels of housing data for the city of Evansville, Indiana. Bowen National Research relied on a variety of data sources to generate this report (see Addendum C). These data sources are not always verifiable; however, Bowen National Research makes a concerted effort to assure accuracy. While this is not always possible, we believe that our efforts provide an acceptable standard margin of error. Bowen National Research is not responsible for errors or omissions in the data provided by other sources. We have no present or prospective interest in any of the properties included in this report, and we have no personal interest or bias with

Top Tier Gasoline Because they are worth it. Letter from President & CEO The great Michelangelo once said, “The problem human beings face is not that we aim too high and fail, but that we aim too low and succeed.” Fortunately, the leaders and officials of Southwest Indiana have aimed high in the goals for bettering our community, and in doing so are well on the way to succeeding. This year’s edition of Keep It Local showcases the many ways that our region continues growing through infrastructure upgrades, quality-of-life improvements and an increasing number of entertainment options. By aiming high, local elected officials and business leaders were able to secure millions in funds through the Regional Cities Initiative, and four years in, many projects meant to attract and retain talent to our region are coming to fruition, if not well on their way. Success, indeed. In the pages ahead, we take a look at several projects that are cementing Evansville as a top attraction in the Midwest: the continued progress of The Post House, a unique mixed-use development that will feature smart-technology labs, retail businesses, apartment living and an open outdoor community space; the upcoming groundbreaking for the Deaconess Aquatic Center, which will be the largest indoor swimming facility in the region; an update on the I-69 bridge that will connect Indiana and Kentucky and is expected to bring a huge economic impact; and several new restaurants and bars with a wide diversity of food and drink options, led by Mo’s House and Myriad Brewery.

  • 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and Annual
    Demo The City of Evansville is requesting to align the Art's District and Jacobsville District NRSAs timelines with the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan Executive Summary ES-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction The City of Evansville, Indiana is pleased to submit to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) its 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. Project goals outlined in the plan were determined through citizens' participation at three public meetings where participants discussed community development and housing needs, including the completion of a survey. Due to COVID-19 and the suspension of public contact the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan was displayed on the City of Evansville website. The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) prepared by Prosperity Indiana provided a summary of the existing fair housing condition in Evansville, with five-year remediation goals. A marketing plan of the public service area, Evansville, prepared by Bowens National Research provided housing data on the existing PSA and five submarkets; Central Area, Near East, East, North, and West, including three submarkets of the Central Area; Arts District, Downtown District, and Jacobsville District. Through the use of these tools Evansville will be able to carry out reasonable community and housing goals with positive outcomes. Evansville Indiana, established in 1812, today is the third-largest city in the state of Indiana with an estimated population of 117,429. Situated along the scenic Ohio River, Evansville is centrally located providing highway access to and from major cities; Indianapolis, Indiana is 170 miles north via Interstate 69, Louisville, Kentucky is 120 miles east via Interstate 64, St.

  • The Art Collection at Sunset Funeral Home & Memorial
    Fishing Under the Ohio Street Bridge Signed, limited edition canvas Giclée by Cedric Hustace the art collection at Sunset funeral home & memorial park Sunset Memorial Park has been a proud member of the Evansville community since 1948. The 2008 addition of Sunset Funeral Home, the only funeral home in the Tri-State area located in a cemetery, means unprecedented convenience and savings for the families we serve. Located at the highest point in Evansville, Sunset Funeral Home is truly an inspirational setting with breathtaking views over- looking the surrounding countryside. When it came time to select the artwork, we wanted our walls to tell a story to capture the flavor of the Evansville area and we embarked on a journey to find artwork depicting the area’s history. On that journey, we discovered that the city is filled with talented local artists. In fact, Evansville is listed #2 in an article titled “10 Great Towns for Working Artists” in the February 2008 issue of Art Calendar, a national trade magazine for visual artists. Making the final selections was extremely difficult as we found so many categories and artists we liked. Sunset Funeral Home is delight- ed to present to you our choices reflecting the area’s rich history and heritage for our permanent collection. We hope you like what we’ve chosen as you walk through the funeral home. Each piece includes a vignette describing the art and informa- tion on the artist. This program, which provides the same informa- tion, is yours to keep. If only the walls could talk—we think ours do and they tell a wonderful story of the talented artists in our area and their view of our little piece of this world.
