Clinton Township 2022 Community Survey

Objectives

The purpose of this survey is to understand the cost of housing for residents of Clinton Township and what impediments they may face in accessing affordable housing.

Introduction

Clinton Township is required to complete an Analysis of Impediments (AI) every 5 years to receive grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This survey is the first of many steps in doing so and will include questions about the Clinton Township community and neighborhood you serve.
