The
State Department of Housing and Community
Development (HCD)
provides each region with its projected
increase in housing need for a seven
and a half year period. This
projection is based on state population
estimates and is articulated in the
Regional Housing Needs Assessment
(RHNA) prepared by the Santa Barbara
County Association of Governments
(SBCAG). SBCAG divides SHCD’s
estimated housing need between the
incorporated cities and the unincorporated
areas of Santa
Barbara County using
information on population, employment,
and commute patterns.
