A Neglected Aspect of Housing Behavior in Housing Programs for the Urban Poor
The paper lays groundwork for a subsequent paper on elements determining regional housing adjustments when low-income migrants enter residential construction markets. It discusses the impact on housing conditions of differences in the way in which families use their housing. Critical features of housing programs for the urban poor are discussed, as are factors that determine the level of upkeep. Data are developed that illustrate the vitiating effects that result from 'hard-use' occupants. Neighborhood effects as a factor of deterioration are discussed, as are conflicting bits of evidence concerning the reasons for the great variation in the rates at which public housing projects deteriorate.
