Combining academic housing specialists, researchers for non-profit
housing organizations, and housing practitioners, this collection
emanated from a Fannie Mae Office of Housing Research roundtable
series led by Belden and Wiener. It explores decent and affordable
shelter in rural areas, an often-overlooked issue in housing
policy. Rural poor and their housing conditions are not widely
discussed or examined within professional literature because most
housing policymakers, administrators, researchers, and advocates
live in cities and take an urban-centric view, what some rural
critics have called "metropolyanna." Following an introductory
chapter which defines "rural" and describes the state of rural
housing and poverty in the United States, chapters cover a broad
spectrum of housing need, innovative strategies, and practitioners'
approaches in rural America. Contributors examine current
conditions of rural housing, look at some solutions to problems
associated with rural housing, and suggest innovations for the
future.
