Building Solutions for New Mexico's Housing Crisis

We know what works – we just need to do it. The Office of Housing is focused on deploying resources to proven strategies, promoting best practices, and working with all segments of the community who are engaged in housing and homelessness issues.

Investments in Housing

The state’s housing investments are designed to meet New Mexico’s diverse needs, from growing cities to rural communities. By supporting construction, preservation, and community-driven development, these efforts expand access to safe and affordable homes statewide.

Investments to Address Homelessness

The state supports a network of programs and facilities that help New Mexicans experiencing homelessness move toward stability. These investments expand shelter capacity, strengthen treatment and navigation services, and connect residents to the resources they need to transition into long-term housing.

Building Solutions for New Mexico’s Housing Crisis:

Our work is informed by outreach to over 40 towns, cities, counties, and tribal governments. From this, we’ve identified unmet needs in four key areas designed to address the underlying drivers of historically high construction costs and our slow pace of adding new housing.
