Housing issues disproportionately affect marginalized social groups. This fact became more apparent following the 2008 financial crisisFinancial crisis 2008, when many people lost their homes and were forced to re-enter an increasingly competitive and unaffordable rental market. While most of the attention in research relates to low-income households and factors such as class and racialized minorities, the housing experiences of people with disabilities remain significantly underexplored. One of the key challenges in addressing this knowledge gap is the scarcity and inaccessibility of reliable data, which is further complicated by the ambiguity of disability definitions. There is a pressing need for a systematic and ongoing collection and analysis of relevant data, ideally informed by the input of scholars working in conjunction with organizations of people with disabilities. Such data-driven approaches are essential for shaping informed, equitable policies that respond to the enduring housing crisis confronting people with disabilities. This contribution aims to shed light on these critical issues and advance the discourse toward more inclusive and effective housing policies.
