Housing Survey

1. Resident Characteristics - Tell Us About Yourself

The Prince George’s County Planning Department is studying different housing types that can provide attainable housing options and have the potential to contribute to more character-rich, walkable neighborhoods that appeal to a broad range of residents.

We would like your input on your housing situation, preferences, and concerns to understand how your housing needs are being met and how new housing types may meet those needs. Please complete this five-minute survey below.

New housing types can provide many benefits to residents and communities, including:

Providing more homes without changing how the neighborhood looks in terms of scale and patterns of buildings  
Offering more energy-efficient buildings and sustainable growth patterns 
Complementing the scale and form of surrounding homes and neighborhoods
Contributing to greater housing affordability 
Creating a broader range of housing options 
Contributing to neighborhoods that are more walkable and bikeable
Helping foster a greater sense of community  
Helping support local businesses 
Supporting public investments, such as infrastructure  
Supporting diverse residents of all ages 
Providing additional income for homeowners 
Creating more pathways to home ownership  
Contributing to greater neighborhood safety
