Local Housing Research Guide
A location-specific housing guide to Ozark city, Alabama using AHH property evidence and U.S. Census Bureau statistics. It is designed to complement the live AHH housing location page rather than duplicate it.
Housing and population context in Ozark city, Alabama

These figures describe the wider local housing and economic setting; they do not determine whether an individual household qualifies for a housing programme.

Population history and housing demand
Decennial Census counts show Ozark city, Alabama at 14,907 residents in 2010 and 14,368 in 2020. The population declined by 3.6% over that decade.
A falling population does not automatically mean affordable housing is readily available. Housing need can remain concentrated by household type, rent level, accessibility needs and the supply of assisted units.
