Book Synopsis Worst Case Housing Needs of People with Disabilities - Supplemental Findings of the Worst Case Housing Needs 2009 by : Maria Teresa Souza
Download or read book Worst Case Housing Needs of People with Disabilities - Supplemental Findings of the Worst Case Housing Needs 2009 written by Maria Teresa Souza. This book was released on 2015. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents national estimates of the number of households that include people with disabilities who have worst case housing needs and presents their characteristics. It provides a supplement to the Worst Case Housing Needs 2009: Report to Congress, released in February 2011. People with disabilities face additional burdens to finding safe and affordable housing for several reasons, such as being subjected to housing discrimination and encountering limited availability of accessible housing units. This supplement responds to the need to improve the estimation of the number of people with disabilities with severe housing needs and address the known undercount of past estimations. This supplement also analyzes the extent to which new direct questions on disabilities, added to the 2009 American Housing Survey (AHS), improve the estimation of people with disabilities and it discusses remaining limitations toward identifying people with disabilities with severe housing needs using this survey.

Book Synopsis Worst Case Housing Needs 2011 by : U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
Download or read book Worst Case Housing Needs 2011 written by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. This book was released on 2014. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) finds dramatic increases in worst case housing needs during the 2009-2011 period that cut across demographic groups, household types, and regions. This rise in hardship among renters is due to substantial increases in rental housing demand and weakening incomes that increase competition for already-scarce affordable units.Given the severely challenged economic conditions that the United States confronted during this period, particularly surrounding the housing market, it is not surprising that the need for housing assistance continues to outpace the ability of federal, state, and local governments to supply it. The forthcoming Worst Case Housing Needs 2011: Report to Congress will examine the causes of and trends in worst case needs for affordable rental housing.

Book Synopsis Worst Case Housing Needs: 2017 Report to Congress by : Housing and Urban Development Dept. (U.S.)
Download or read book Worst Case Housing Needs: 2017 Report to Congress written by Housing and Urban Development Dept. (U.S.). This book was released on 2017-11-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report covers the timeframe from 2013-2015 based on the American Housing Survey (AHS) data that is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau. This report provides national data and analysis of the critical problems facing low-income renting families. Households in this report are defined as very low-income renters who do not receive government housing assistance and who paid more than one-half their income for rent, lived in severely inadequate conditions or both. Contributing most to the increase in worst case needs between years 2013 and 2015 was a notable shift from home ownership to renting. Modest gains in household incomes were met with rising rents, shrinking supply of affordable housing stock in an increasingly competitive market. This data identifies a worst-case needs household as a family with two children, most often a minority family headed either by a single female or married couple. Municipal and state government personnel within the Housing Authority that offer affordable housing properties to its citizens may be most interested in this data. Additionally, rental property managers and builders, American citizens, policymakers, economic developers and advisors, and community planners may also find this research helpful to their strategic program needs. High school students and above may be interested in the statistical data that includes text, tables, charts representing this population and their needs for the basic necessity of housing to provide primary source materials for research reports and term papers.

Book Synopsis The Affordable Housing Reader by : Elizabeth J. Mueller
Download or read book The Affordable Housing Reader written by Elizabeth J. Mueller. This book was released on 2013-03-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Affordable Housing Reader brings together classic works and contemporary writing on the themes and debates that have animated the field of affordable housing policy as well as the challenges in achieving the goals of policy on the ground. The Reader – aimed at professors, students, and researchers – provides an overview of the literature on housing policy and planning that is both comprehensive and interdisciplinary. It is particularly suited for graduate and undergraduate courses on housing policy offered to students of public policy and city planning. The Reader is structured around the key debates in affordable housing, ranging from the conflicting motivations for housing policy, through analysis of the causes of and solutions to housing problems, to concerns about gentrification and housing and race. Each debate is contextualized in an introductory essay by the editors, and illustrated with a range of texts and articles. Elizabeth Mueller and Rosie Tighe have brought together for the first time into a single volume the best and most influential writings on housing and its importance for planners and policy-makers.
