Guest Column: New zoning approach needed for housing

Northern Virginia continues to be one of the fastest growing areas in the United States. Despite federal job losses from DOGE over the past two years, our region is set to return to positive job growth by the end of 2026. A little over 2.6 million people are living in the area right now, and that number is expected to climb to over 3 million in the next few years. This growth has bolstered the local economy but has also created a significant challenge – especially around the cost of housing. The most recent Virginia Joint Legislative Audit & Review Commission report shows that the Northern Virginia region needs over 60,000 new affordable housing units to support growing industries in manufacturing, healthcare and information technology. Organizations like the Northern Virginia Affordable Housing Alliance, Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce and others have warned that this gap in affordable housing units risks business growth opportunities that would directly lead to slower economic output.

It is important to understand that decisions related to housing cannot be made in a vacuum. We know that

D.C. Developers Doubt Janeese Lewis George's 72,000-Home Pledge Can Survive the Market

Mayor-elect Janeese Lewis George campaigned on protecting tenants and getting 72,000 homes built across Washington, D.C. within five years, but as she prepares to take office in January, the developers who would actually build that housing are skeptical the number adds up. The District's development market has slowed sharply amid federal job losses, unpaid rent, regulatory hurdles and high financing costs, and many in the industry say Lewis George's early promises of denser zoning and faster permitting, however welcome, won't be enough to turn things around.
