This interactive map titled Envisioning Development: What is Affordable Housing? answers two very important questions when looking at NYC’s demographics: “Who lives where?” and “Who can afford to live here?”.

Users are able to select individual neighborhoods in New York City and investigate the number of families in each income category on an animated bar-graph-like construct at the bottom of the page. Selecting the question ‘Who can afford to live here?’ allows for the exploration of more detailed rent price information. Housing is labeled as ‘affordable’ if one spends 30% or less of income on rent or mortgage payments.
