Medium-density Housing

Medium-Density Housing is a type of residential development that falls within the broader category of housing density classifications, distinguished by its moderately compact form—typically ranging from 20 to 80 dwelling units per hectare—incorporating attached or multifamily dwellings such as townhouses, duplexes, and low-rise apartments, thereby offering greater density than single-family detached homes yet remaining less intensive than high-density urban housing forms.
