The public is invited to take an online survey about non-metro area housing in Johnson County. The non-metro area includes the unincorporated area, villages and the six small cities of Hills, Lone Tree, Oxford, Shueyville, Solon and Swisher. The study area also includes manufactured home parks anywhere in the county. 

The short survey is available at the new Johnson County Housing Study dashboard. Survey takers are encouraged to review the study goals and findings to date shared at the dashboard before taking the survey. The consulting firm CommunityScale will use the survey responses to refine recommended actions the Johnson County Board of Supervisors may take. The survey closes September 30.

Survey takers can translate the survey into other languages by using browser functions. In addition, paper copies are available on request by contacting the Johnson County Planning, Development and Sustainability Department at 319-356-6083. 

CommunityScale has been working with Johnson County since April to host more than 30 hours of stakeholder meetings, focus groups and public input events.

Additional information, including links to the Board of Supervisors’ discussions on the topic, is available at https://www.johnsoncountyiowa.gov/housing-assessment-study-2025.
