Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful
introductions to major fields in the social sciences, business and
law, expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to
be accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of
the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject
areas. This timely Advanced Introduction explores the links between
housing and households, including the complex process of how people
sort themselves into houses and neighborhoods. It covers the
choices that households make, why these choices are made, and the
constraints faced in achieving housing aspirations, with a
particular focus on the contemporary difficulties facing young
adults and those unable to buy a house despite a reasonable income.
Key features include: using the concept of the life course to
analyse residential decisions and choices discussing tenure choice,
affordability and social housing, as well as how neighborhoods
matter in urban studies reviewing what is known about how the
housing market operates, and how families and individuals engage
with the process of becoming homeowners providing new information
on the urban housing environment in a time of rising inequality,
low income growth and extensive regulation in the housing market.
Advanced students and professionals of geography, planning,
demography and economics will find this an invigorating read on how
housing markets operate and the role of individual decisions about
homeownership and residential space.
