Demonstration in Low-Cost Housing Techniques

C. R. LeMenager / E. Bowe / D. C. Hill

The low income housing demonstration project is part of the search for means of developing housing to be utilized for low income domestic and often migratory farm workers in the western states. The objective was to study methods of construction, building materials and supplies, and building plans in three California areas which would produce inexpensive housing. A total of 28 units were built using a variety of construction techniques. Studies of the units and their occupants have been made and the results are recorded. The report reflects building costs and building construction features, as well as the amenities or undesirable features of these structures as seen through the eyes of professional building evaluators, housing authority officials, and the residents themselves.
