About

The Housing Readiness Report tracks how Bay Area jurisdictions are implementing their affordable housing plans, and whether those efforts are advancing equity. It brings together data on housing needs, racial and economic disparities, policy commitments, and local progress—helping advocates and government staff understand what’s working, where gaps remain, and how to take action.

Who We Are

The Housing Readiness Report was created by the Partnership for the Bay’s Future, an initiative of the San Francisco Foundation that works to advance equitable housing policy change and increase affordable housing across the Bay Area. This tool is part of PBF’s broader strategy to make housing policy more transparent, participatory, and accountable—especially for communities most impacted by the housing crisis.

The platform was developed by Exygy, a digital innovation studio on a mission to build resilient and healthy communities. Exygy enables impact-focused organizations to rethink experiences and create digital products that solve their problems and delight users.
