New housing dashboard shows Sioux Falls data, neighborhood investments
Sept. 24, 2025
It’s now possible to get a clear, frequently updated look at housing in Sioux Falls.
The city’s Planning and Development Services Department has launched an online housing dashboard, aimed at providing residents, community partners and city leaders with information about the impact of the city’s housing programs.
“The housing dashboard will allow people to see in a clear and visual way how and where resources are being invested in neighborhoods across Sioux Falls,” said Logan Penfield, housing development manager.
The dashboard provides information on:
- Community housing metrics, including population, single- and multifamily housing unit permits and median home sale prices.
- Program outcomes, highlighting case management services, rental assistance, subsidized housing units and rehabilitation services provided annually over the past three years.
- Interactive mapping tools, which display the locations of city-supported projects to rehabilitate and repair housing. Single-family projects are displayed at the block level to protect personally identifiable information. The map also allows users to overlay neighborhood association boundaries and view projects over the past five years.
Data presented in the dashboard is updated on a recurring basis, and its frequency depends on the metric and source of the information. Median home sale prices are updated monthly with data from the Realtor Association of the Sioux Empire. Vacancy rates are updated twice a year by the South Dakota Multi-Housing Association, and the remaining metrics are provided by the city — annually for population and programs, and monthly for building permits.
The Housing Division, which is part of Planning and Development Services, administers programs funded by local, state and federal resources to assist low- to moderate-income residents. These programs include single-family housing rehabilitation, mobile home repair, rental rehabilitation and neighborhood revitalization initiatives.
