A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The study analyzes the changes in quality of housing occupied by urban nonwhites as revealed by the Censuses of Population and Housing in 1950 and 1960. It discusses market factors that affect the rate at which the proportion of substandard housing is reduced. Problems associated with predictions of anticipated upgrading in housing quality are discussed, and data on changes in white and non-white occupancy rates for selected SMSA's are presented. The notes close with a discussion of costs involved in eliminating substandard housing in urban areas.
