Codebook for the Housing Allowance Office (HAO) Housing Characteristics File, Site II, Year 5. Housing Assistance Supply Experiment
One of a series archiving housing allowance office (HAO) materials used in the Housing Assistance Supply Experiment, this codebook describes the HAO housing characteristics file from the program's first 5 years in Site II (St. Joseph County, Indiana). As the final codebook for the housing characteristics file in Site II, it supersedes all previous versions. Compiled from HAO administrative records, the file contains data on 58,335 housing evaluations for the 16,126 households that enrolled between December 18, 1974, and January 4, 1980. Evaluation data describe a housing unit's facilities, rate its condition, and summarize the evaluator's conclusions about the unit's acceptability for a particular client. Units are judged according to HAO standards of habitability, condition, and occupancy. For each variable in the file, the codebook identifies the admimistrative form from which it was taken, specifies all permissible entries, and annotates each entry with a complete definition. Also included are marginals for each data element (tabulations of all responses in the housing characteristics file). Footnotes and an index of variables are provided. Appendices present housing unit evaluation certification forms, maps of St. Joseph County neighborhoods and census tracts, tables of standard housing expenses for 1975-79, and a glossary. (Author abstract modified).
