Sacramento staff: city produced 2,737 housing units in 2025, at 29% of RHNA target

Senior planner Greta Seuss presented Sacramento’s 2025 Housing Element annual progress report to the City Council, reporting that the city produced 2,737 housing units in 2025 — nearly a 15% increase from 2024 — and that the city has completed about 29% of its RHNA target of 45,580 units for the 2021–2029 planning period.

The presentation, delivered in the community development department’s slide deck, broke the production down by income band and project type. Seuss told the council that 930 of the 2025 units were deed‑restricted affordable units, representing roughly 34% of that year’s production, and that housing production in 2025 occurred across all income levels.

“Every April, the city is required to submit a housing element annual progress report to the state for the prior calendar year,” Seuss said. She added that the city is about five years into the eight‑year RHNA cycle and that the city’s cumulative progress remains below the linear pace needed to meet the overall RHNA target.
