Climate change will dramatically impact where Americans live. In fact, cities around the Great Lakes are already experiencing the first signs of climate migration inflows from increasingly hotter and more disaster-prone regions. The policy and programming choices that these receiving cities make today will determine whether population growth leads to economic opportunity and revitalization or to housing shortages, gentrification, and displacement.

The Great Lakes Receiving Network engages regionally with anticipated receiving cities in community-led conversations, scenario planning exercises, and cross-learning events about what a resilient future looks like amid climate migration, for both existing residents and newcomers. Network activities help answer questions about the housing, infrastructure, and public service needs that will allow these cities to thrive in our climate future.
