The good news is, while the rest of the state isn’t doing so well, “tiny” Calistoga gets high marks when it comes to providing housing. The not-so-good news is that the assessment process that sets the bar is flawed.
Thirty-one Southern California cities – from Huntington Beach to Hidden Hills and from Lancaster to Loma Linda – failed to meet a state requirement to report progress meeting housing goals each year, a new report says.
Housing construction in California is lagging so badly, it would take some towns and cities centuries at their current construction pace to meet state goals to build homes for low- and middle-income families, according to a new analysis. But in some Bay Area cities, new construction for high earners is way ahead of schedule.

California’s housing supply law has failed in its goal of spurring enough new home building to meet demand, especially for low-income residents, according to a new report from public policy think tank Next 10.
