## Resource

The government is pouring $5.9 billion into housing in Region Two, targeting a 90% reduction in the housing backlog by 2027. Major investments are underway in areas like Onderneeming and Hoff Van Aurich, with over 4,600 people already benefiting from infrastructure upgrades. More than 1,693 house lots have been distributed since 2021, impacting around 6,000 families, while title processing is underway for those with land. Despite a remaining backlog of over 2,500 applications, authorities are developing 4,300 new lots and expanding land acquisition to meet demand. The Vice President promises all eligible applicants will receive lots within 18 months — and by 2027, Guyanese will see dramatically improved housing access.
