At the core of the Joint Center's research agenda is the examination of housing markets, and the economic and demographic trends driving market dynamics. Each year, this ongoing research produces the widely recognized State of the Nation's Housing report, which is the Center's premier publication.

Each year-long research agenda for the State of the Nation's Housing also produces a number of smaller focused studies which are published as working papers. These cover a range of topics including housing and household wealth, rental prices, homebuilding, and the demographics of housing demand.

The State of the Nation's Housing receives principal funding from the Ford Foundation. The Center is also fortunate to have many organizations and associations as collaborators and co-sponsors.
