Overall, the distribution of housing types in Louisville is similar to that of the <br />County, with a smaller proportion of renters and homeowners living in plex housing. In <br />Louisville, the majority of homeowners (88%) reside in single-family detached housing, while <br />the majority of renters (57%) live in multifamily housing. Around 28% of renters in Louisville <br />live in single-family units, which could indicate that renters who might otherwise purchase a <br />single-family home (such as family renters) are unable to afford to do so. Additionally, only 7% <br />of homeowners in Louisville live in plex housing, suggesting an opportunity to expand these <br />types of housing to provide more affordable homeownership options in the city. <br />ECONorthwest 34 <br />41 <br />
