Life, liberty, and the pursuit of housing: an increasingly
difficult quest in the contemporary urban United States, where
crime, urban blight, and continuing capital decay undercut the
advantages of city living. The American dream has moved to the
suburbs; the nightmare of our cities prompts new recognition both
in the president's cabinet and the college curriculum.The editors
of this book have updated their acclaimed earlier collection,
providing new introductory articles; new papers, such as,
Discrimination in Housing Prices and Mortgage Lending, ASummary
Report of Current Findings from the Experimental Housing Allowance
Program, Alternative Mortgage Designs and Their Effectiveness in
Eliminating Demand and Supply Effects on Inflation; and a new
bibliography of the literature.Additional chapters focus on
differing strategies for improved urban housing and renewal by
providing concrete suggestions for distributing existing resources
and allocating new funding. The bibliography provides the best
single guide to the current literature on housing. Housing Urban
America, in this new edition, is an important guide to those
students and scholars fascinated by the essential questions of
adequate housing: its social costs, and the source of the revenues
to provide it.
