## Resource

Williamson County, Tennessee, faces a severe housing crisis, with a projected shortage of over ten thousand affordable homes in four years. This scarcity is straining local businesses and workers, as nearly 87% of Franklins workforce commutes from outside the county. High land prices are the primary obstacle, but the Franklin Housing Authority is working on renovations and new projects to alleviate the issue.
