Utah's housing market, a blend of growing urban centers and more spread-out rural communities, presents significant cost-of-living pressures driven by rising home prices and rental rates. These economic challenges disproportionately affect low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities, who most frequently require rental assistance to secure stable housing.
