This framework included a provision that at least one current member of the Iowa City Council will serve as a voting member of any non-profit organization that manages a Sister City relationship. While no Sister City relationships have been established to date, there are discussions taking place amongst interested community members. The Mayor and Mayor Pro Tern have requested that the City Council informally appoint one Councilor to be a liaison to members of the community that are contemplating taking the next step in creating a Sister City relationship. Any informal appointment made by the City Council at this time can be formalized at the organizational meeting in January 2026 when all Council appointments are determined.

Staff intends to add to this memo with each Information Packet that is publicly released prior to formal City Council meetings. We welcome feedback on the type of information that you believe will be most informative and useful in your roles as City Councilors. Date Topic Source October HUD Point -in -Time Count: This is a required count I Institute for Community 31, 2024 November 14, 2024 conducted across the country of sheltered and unsheltered people experiencing homelessness on a single night in January. In 2023, the count revealed 160 sheltered and 18 unsheltered individuals in Johnson County. In 2024, the count revealed 159 sheltered and 22 unsheltered individuals in Johnson County. Housing Choice Voucher Utilization Rate: The utilization rate refers to the number of housing choice vouchers that are under lease as a percentage of total vouchers available. As of July 2024, the national utilization rate is 86.23%. The State of Iowa utilization rate is 82.74%. The Iowa City Housing Authority utilization rate of 92.85% exceeds both the national and state figures. December ICAAR Market Trends: ICAAR collects data about home 5, 2024 sales monthly. In Oct. 2024, the median sales price was $376,250 for single-family (up 29.9% from Oct. 2023) and Alliances (ICA) https://ica I lian ces. orglpit I HUD Housing Choice I i Voucher Data Dashboard hftps://www.hud.-gov/pro pram offices/public indi an housing/programs/h cv/dashboard Iowa City Area Association of Realtors (ICAAR): November 12, 2025 Page 2 was $274,000 for a condominium (up 8.5%). However, the median sales price per square foot only increased 8.3%, which suggests some of the increase is due to the size of homes. In addition, the active inventory has increased 37.7%, which can help slow inflationary pressures. January 2,' 2-Bedroom Housing Wage: The National Low Income 2025 January 21, 2025 February 4, 2025 Housing Coalition computes housing wages across the country (the hourly wage rate needed to afford housing in the selected geographic region). In Iowa, the 2-bedroom housing wage across the state is $18.86. For the Iowa City metropolitan area, the 2-bedroom housing wage is $20.81. 1' Cost Burden: A household is considered housing cost burdened if it spends more than 30% of its income on housing expenses, including rent, mortgage payments, and utilities. In 2023, 59.3% of renters and 18.0% of owners were housing cost burdened. Households with lower incomes are more likely to experience cost burden 91 % of households making less than $35,000 are cost burdened. Cost of Home Construction: The NAHB regularly conducts a national, non -statistically valid survey of builders about the cost breakdowns for a new single-family home. In 2024, the average finished area of a new home was 2,647 square feet, and the average total sales price was $665,298. Construction costs accounted for approximately 64.4% of the sales price. Meanwhile, the finished lot cost was 13.7% of the sales price, while other overhead costs — including financing, general expenses, marketing, and sales commissions — made up another htt s://icaar.or /market - trends/ National Low Income Housing Coalition Out of Reach Report. httl2s:/Inlihe.org/oor/stat e/ia 2023 5-Year American Community Survey Data by the U.S. Census Bureau https://data.census. -go/ table/ACS DT5Y2023.

In 2023, the count revealed 160 sheltered and 18 unsheltered individuals in Johnson County. In 2024, the count revealed 159 sheltered and 22 unsheltered individuals in Johnson County. The 2025 count of sheltered individuals is being gathered for submission to HUD. Unofficially, the 2025 count revealed 38 unsheltered individuals in Johnson County. March 6, ICAAR Days on Market Trends: ICAAR collects data 2025 about how long homes are listed for sale on the market. In Feb. 2025, the median Days on Market (DOM) in Iowa City was 36 for single-family (up 38.5% from Feb. 2024) and was 28 for condominiums (up 24.4%). While DOM increased this past year, these numbers still suggest many homes are selling relatively quickly, and there is a strong demand for housing compared to supply. May 1, 2025 Utility Expenses: The cost of utilities is an important component of monthly housing expenditures. The Iowa Finance Authority (I FA) recently funded a dashboard that allows public utility providers in Iowa to compare water and sewer rates from FY23. For a residential customer using 5,000 gallons of water and sewer service, Iowa City monthly rate is $60.73 which is in the lowest 20% of bills charged (the median in Iowa is $85.60). When a residential customer only uses 4,000 gallons of water and sewer service, Iowa City's rate drops to the lowest 10% of bills charged at $50.30 (compared to the Iowa median of study-cost-of- constructing-a-horne- 2024-January-2025. pdf Institute for Community Alliances (ICA) - 2025 not yet available. https://icalliances.org/pit Iowa City Area Association of Realtors (ICAAR): hit2s:/Iicaar.org/market- trends/ 12023 Iowa Water and Wastewater Rates Dashboard, Environmental Finance Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC EFC): https.//dash boards. efc. s og.unc.edu/ia November 12, 2025 Page 4 $74.32). While Iowa City's rates have increased since FY23, this highlights the comparative affordability of Iowa City's water and sewer service. ICAAR Inventory and Sales Trends: ICAAR collects data May 15, Iowa City Area 2025 on several housing market variables by city. The April 2025 Association of Realtors data shows that active inventory of homes for Iowa City is (ICAAR): up 54.5% compared to April 2024 while closed sales are https://icaar.orc/market- trends/ down 20% for that same period. This data suggests fewer buyers may be participating in the market. May 29, Household Size: Household size affects housing needs 2023 5-Year American 2025 within a community. For example, larger households may Community Survey require homes with more bedrooms and living space, Data by the U.S. whereas smaller households, such as singles or couples Census Bureau without children, can drive demand for smaller units. In https://data.census.gov/ table/ACSST5Y2023.S2 2023, 37% of Iowa City households consisted of 1 person, 501?q=iowa+city,+ia 35% consisted of 2 persons, 14% consisted of 3 persons, and 13% consisted of 4 persons. However, there is a reciprocal relationship: smaller units may attract smaller households rather than small households driving the demand for smaller units. June 12, Fair Market Rents (FMR): Every year, the U.S. FY 2025 Fair Market 2025 Department of Housing & Urban Development publishes Rent for Iowa City, IA FMRs which estimate reasonable rental prices for housing https://www.huduser.go v/tportal/datasets/fmr/fmr in specific geographic areas. It is considered a benchmark s/FY2025 code/2025su for rent affordability and is used by many affordable housing mmary.odn programs to establish maximum rents. Effective June 1, 2025, the monthly FMR is $921 for a 1-bedroom unit, $1,105 for a 2-bedroom unit, and $1,548 for a 3-bedroom unit in Iowa City. Compared to 2024, FMR increased 4.2% for efficiency units, 2.1 % for 1- and 2-bedroom units, 1.5% for 3-bedroom units, and 1.1 % for larger units. November 12, 2025 Page 5 July 3, Price -to -Income Ratio: Every year, Harvard University 2025 publishes a State of the Nation's Housing report. One metric it uses to quantify affordability is the Price -to -Income Ratio which compares the median sales price of existing single family homes to the median household income within each housing market. A ratio of 3.0 (i.e. the median home sales price is 3 times the median income) is traditionally considered affordable. Higher ratios are considered less affordable. In 2024, the ratio for the Iowa City metro was 4.25, which is the second year in a row above 4.0. Since 1980, Iowa City has been primarily in the 3.0 to 3.9 range. July 31, Income Limits: Each year, the U.S. Department of 2025 Housing and Urban Development publishes income limits for federally assisted housing based on the Area Median Income (AMI) for each metropolitan area. Households earning less than 80% AMI are classified as low income, while those earning below 60% AMI are often prioritized for federally assisted rental housing. As of June 1, 2025, a 4- person household in Iowa City is considered low income if their annual income is below $94,550 (80% AMI). The 60% AMI threshold is $70,920 for a 4-person household. These limits represent a 3.1 % increase from 2024. August 14, Resident Mobility: Resident mobility shapes housing 2025 1 markets by influencing demand, turnover, and neighborhood stability. Younger adults, including university students and early -career professionals, move more frequently, while older adults tend to pursue more stable housing. In Iowa City, only 45% of adult Gen Z'ers (aged 18-29) lived in the same house the year before, compared to 79% of Millennials (aged 30-44), 89% of Gen Kers (aged 45-59) and 93% of older generations (aged 60+). !

The United Way of Johnson Stronger Together 2025 Septem 11, 2025 October 2, 2025 and Washington Counties recently published a Community I Community Needs Needs Assessment, which includes an impact goal for everyone to have safe, stable housing that they can afford. One metric they tracked was the number of people seeking formal housing services or shelter. Their data indicates 2,194 people in Johnson County sought services in 2023. Approximately 26% were children under 18, 9% were youth aged 18-24, 50% were adults aged 25-54, and 15% were adults aged 55+. Note that many individuals facing housing instability utilize informal housing methods, so this data does not reflect the full needs present in the County. Poverty Status: Poverty status means a household's income is below the federal poverty threshold for its size, indicating they may struggle to meet basic needs. People living in poverty often spend a larger share of their income on housing, which can lead to overcrowding, housing instability, or difficulty affording other necessary expenses. In 2023, 26.3% of Iowa City residents were determined to be below the poverty level. Much of this is due to Iowa City's large student population. Approximately 65.5% of those enrolled in undergraduate and graduate school were determined to be below the poverty level, compared to 10.6% of the remaining population.

October 2-Bedroom Housing Wage: Each year, the National Low 16, 2025 Income Housing Coalition computes housing wages (i.e. the hourly wage rate needed to afford housing in a selected geographic region) across the country. For the State of Iowa, the 2-bedroom housing wage is $19.99 for 2025, an increase of 6.0% since 2024. For the Iowa City metropolitan area, the 2-bedroom housing wage is $20.81 for 2025, an increase of 2.1 % since 2024. October ICAAR Market Trends: ICAAR collects data about home 30, 2025 sales monthly.

However, the https://icaar.org/market- median sales price per square foot only increased 9.0%, which suggests some of the increase is due to the size of homes. In addition, the active inventory has increased 1.8%, which may help stabilize inflationary pressures. Mortgage Interest Rates: Freddie Mac conducts a survey on primary mortgage interest rates every week. Interest rates affect the cost of homeownership, with higher interest rates leading to higher costs as more money is paid towards interest. For the week of November 6, the 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 6.22%, which is 0.57% lower than it was one year ago. While this is near the long-term average, it is higher than the historically low interest rates experienced in the years following the pandemic. trends/ Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey, U.S. weekly average as of November 6, 2025: httDs://www.freddiemac. com/pmms r t:=-4 CITY OF IOWA CITY �`q�p MEMORANDUM Date: November 12, 2025 To: Mayor and City Council From: City Manager's Office Re: Iowa City Housing Authority Waiting List Update Data on the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) and Public Housing (PH) waitlists is provided monthly by the Iowa City Housing Authority (ICHA).
