About Keys4All

Keys4All was founded by a student who learned that many teachers, nurses, and essential workers in Orange County cannot afford to live in the communities where they work. While the housing crisis is often discussed by policymakers and developers, young people rarely have a voice in these conversations.

The Housing Crisis In Orange County

Housing in Orange County has become increasingly expensive over the past decade.

Key facts:

The median home price in Orange County is over $1.3 million.

The average monthly rent in Irvine is over $3,000.

Housing is considered affordable when it costs no more than 30% of a household’s income

For many workers, especially teachers and nurses, housing costs far exceed this threshold.

This creates a situation where essential workers must commute long distances or leave the area entirely.
