- In late 2005, a study was conducted to measure the impact that FCHH is having on the Rochester communit. It showed the habitat homes since 1984 have added $5.6 million dollars to the city's tax base and that this number increases by roughly $500,000 each year. This is possible because habitat homes are typically assessed to be worth twice the value of their older neighboring homes and non-habitat homes on a street targeted by FCHH have seen a marked increase in their own value.	+ In late 2005, a study was conducted to measure the impact that FCHH is having on the Rochester community.

- Each habitat home costs about $65,000 to build. This money is typically raised through church coalitions, corporate donations, or groups of individuals. Habitat homeowners are selected by committee and must have stable employment and significant need for the home - i.e., children or other dependents. Future homeowners must contribute 500 hours of 'sweat equity', or labor to both their home and other habitat homes. Once the house is built and occupied, the owner makes monthly no-interest mortgage payments until the house is paid for in full.	+ Each Habitat home costs about $65,000 to build.

As of 2005, 344 children were removed from lead exposure by living in habitat-built homes. 71% of children in habitat homes graduate from high school and engage in some form of higher education. Of those who do not graduate, habitat children are more likely to pursue a GED.	+ In late 2005, a study was conducted to measure the impact that FCHH is having on the Rochester communit.
