Summary:

Since 1916, the National Park Service has provided rental housing in parks to many of its employees. The Park Service has an inventory today of about 4,700 housing units. Nearly half of the housing inventory is more than 30 years old. Park Service estimates of what it would cost to repair, rehabilitate, repair, and replace this housing inventory have increased significantly during the past several years; the total estimate is now more than half a billion dollars. This report (1) describes the Park Service's housing program and compares it with the housing programs run by two other large land management agencies--the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management--and (2) identifies options that are available to the Park Service to deal with its housing problems.
