Since our founding in the 1990s, the Black homeownership rate in Minnesota has decreased from 30% to 26%, while homeownership rates for all other racial demographic groups have increased.
September 12, 2025 at 4:11 PM
Over the last 30 years, the average rent in Minnesota has increased by 242%, while the state minimum wage has only increased by 162%.

As rent increases continue to outpace wage increases, more and more neighbors need affordable housing options.

Where were you in 1995 when Housing in Action was founded? The Housing in Action team took some time to reflect—can you guess which staff member is pictured in each photo?

(And can you believe HIA is older than some of our staff members?!)

This week, we’re taking a deep dive on how our work and the world we do it in has changed since our founding in 1995.

But first, cheers to thirty years! We’re so proud of our growth over the last three decades, and are grateful for every supporter.
