Why focus on veteran and military-connected households?
- 25.7% of Florida’s 1 million+ veterans are cost-burdened by housing.
- 59% of Florida’s veteran renters under the United Way’s ALICE threshold (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) are cost-burdened.
- Post 9-11 veterans are 5% less likely than their non-veteran peers to be able to afford housing.
- Among veterans who are single mothers, nearly half are spending more than 30% of their income on housing.
