Anoka County Tops In Housing Performance

Anoka County has received a ‘95’ in the 2007 Metropolitan Council Housing Performance Survey. The survey evaluates municipalities, including counties and cities, and uses the scores in determining priority for infrastructure investments or expenditures to communities that have demonstrated their commitment to providing their share of low and moderate income and life cycle housing opportunities.

Anoka County received a final score of 95 out of a possible 100 points. This score is the highest score the county can achieve without owning or operating housing subsidized through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

“This score clearly demonstrates Anoka County’s ongoing commitment to providing affordable housing opportunities to the residents of Anoka County. It’s also an opportunity for the communities within Anoka County to benefit from the county’s track record with the Metropolitan Council Housing Performance Survey in securing additional funding for their own initiatives to better serve residents who call Anoka County home,” said Anoka County Board of Commissioners Chairman Dennis Berg.
