Does the institution have incentives or programs to encourage employees to live close to campus?:
A brief description of the incentives or programs:
The UniverCity Neighborhood Partnership is a cooperative effort between the City of Iowa City and the University of Iowa focusing on neighborhoods located near the University campus that retain a single-family character and a demand for single-family housing, but also have a large renter population. The program is dedicated to ensuring that the University of Iowa campus and surrounding neighborhoods remain vital, safe, affordable, and attractive places to live and work for both renters and homeowners.
The UniverCity Neighborhood Partnership is targeted to affordable, owner-occupied housing. The City of Iowa City has acquired and rehabilitated homes in designated neighborhoods surrounding the University of Iowa and downtown Iowa City.
