Is there any data available on housing affordability in Africa?

Yes, there is data on housing affordability in Africa, but it can be fragmented and varies significantly across countries and regions.
The Centre for Affordable Housing Finance in Africa (CAHF) is a key organisation that researches housing markets across the continent. It focuses on affordability, finance, and policy, and publishes the annual "Housing Finance in Africa Yearbook," which provides detailed insights into housing affordability, market trends, and financial accessibility across various African countries.
