FAQs

The City is studying the housing our community needs now and in the future — how many homes, what types, and for whom. This kind of study is called a "Housing Capacity Analysis," but at its heart it's simply a plan to make sure Lincoln City has enough of the right types of homes for the people who live and work here. Your input is a key part of it.

Your answers, combined with everyone else's, help the City understand the community's real housing needs. That information directly shapes the City's housing decisions going forward.

Anyone who lives, works, or spends significant time in Lincoln City. You don't need to be a homeowner, a registered voter, or a planning expert — if Lincoln City is part of your life, we want to hear from you.

The City will pull together what it learned — from this survey and other community conversations — to build a clearer picture of local housing needs. That picture will guide future housing planning, and the City will share what it finds back with the community here on this page.
