San Jose's Affordable Housing Crisis | California News
Description
San Jose’s affordable housing program is in crisis, with a damning audit revealing massive failures: three out of every ten property inspections missed, a three-month backlog, and hundreds of tenants earning above income limits—with no system to handle it. Staff shortages, outdated processes, and just one inspector for thousands of units have led to repeated violations going unaddressed for months. The City Council has accepted the findings and is pushing for urgent reforms, including new software, clear tenant eligibility policies, and a strategic oversight plan—all while the Housing Department vows to meet deadlines and even launch a new online portal to track available units.
