What is a decent home? Does it simply provide shelter from the
elements? Is it affordable enough that you can buy the other
necessities of life? Does it connect you to a community with
adequate social and economic resources? Noted housing expert Alan
Mallach turns his decades of experience to these questions in "A
Decent Home". Mallach's nuanced analysis of housing issues critical
to communities across the country will help planners evaluate the
housing situation in their own communities and formulate specific
plans to address a variety of housing problems. The book is both a
practical step-by-step guide to developing affordable housing and a
sophisticated introduction to housing policy. Chapters address
design, site selection, project approval, financing, and the
history of housing policy in the United States. Planners will find
useful information about inclusionary and exclusionary zoning,
affordable housing preservation, and the risks and rewards of
affordable-home-ownership programs. Mallach also connects the dots
among regional economic competitiveness, quality of life, community
revitalization, and affordable housing.
