The State of the Nation’s Housing 2025
June 24 @ 2:00 pm – 5:30 pm EDT
This year, the US housing market is shrouded in uncertainty and unease. High home prices and interest rates have pushed sales to their lowest level in 30 years; insurance premiums and property taxes are on the rise; high rents have left record numbers with cost burdens; and wildfires have highlighted the growing dangers of climate disasters. Meanwhile, households find diminished federal support, with the possibility of an economic downturn that would only exacerbate these challenges.
Join us online or in person at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston for the release of The State of the Nation’s Housing 2025.
For those attending virtually: A link will be shared in advance of the event.
For those attending in person: Please plan to arrive 15-30 minutes early. The Bank is located at 600 Atlantic Avenue, directly across the street from South Station and easily accessible via public transit. Upon entering the Bank, all guests are asked to show a government-issued photo ID at the security desk. After receiving a visitor’s pass, you’ll go through a security screening area (similar to airport screenings) as part of the entry process.
