The Bulletin is ramping up its coverage of housing affordability in 2023, and the newsroom needs your help.

Living in Central Oregon in the past few years, it’s nearly impossible to avoid the impacts of a squeezed housing market that’s driven prices skyward, made apartments hard to come by and pushed more people onto the street.

To help us tell the story, we’re asking readers from across Central Oregon to take a short survey about their experiences with the housing market and the questions they have about housing in Central Oregon.

No story or question about housing is too big or small, whether you’re a longtime homeowner or brand new to town. Your comments will help us shape our coverage of an issue that’s become central to our community.

The survey can be completed in the form below, or online at bendbulletin.us/housingsurvey.
