It may be a place of safety and security or one riddled with precarity and stress. The link between public health and housing is multifaceted. A clean, safe, and decent home is important for individual, family, and community health. Historically, the housing-health connection has focused primarily on homelessness and physical exposures; however, emerging research suggests that the housing-health relationship transcends beyond these two categories. Health is also associated with rental assistance status, housing insecurity, a lack of affordable housing, and neighborhood quality.
