Many rural communities have been struggling with the migration patterns increasing population prices and the COVID-19 pandemic has only increased the issue of affordable housing. The Sentinel Source discussed several different researchers who had seen this problem across the U.S., including Jess Carson, Carsey School of Public Policy researcher. Carson explained how many people hadn't recovered from the 2008 recession before being hit again with the challenges of the pandemic and the variables allowing communities to rebuild.
