The identification of housing needs must address issues of affordability, supply, quality, accessibility, size of units, and location. The recently completed Housing Element of the City of Santa Ana's General Plan has identified as a goal 694 units of housing affordable to very low income households and 574 units of housing affordable for low income households. Whereas the majority of the participants (54%) and applicants (46%) only require 1-bedroom units. Of the overall renting population in Santa Ana, 45% have households of 5 or more persons. The most recent data regarding severe housing burden for renters by income level is 12% for very low, 60% for extremely low. Moderate housing burden by income level is 61 % very low and 82% extremely low. 50% of elderly renters are estimated to overpay for housing. Of the 3105 families on the wait list 20% are disabled, l l % are elderly.

This is a population that we determined to have a number of barriers to affordable housing. 9.1 Strategy for Addressing Housing Needs.
