Abstract:
This study examines the distribution of crime across various types of low-income housing developments and estimates the main and interactive effects of housing development and neighborhood characteristics on crime. Negative binomial regression models were estimated to observe the influence of security and design features, neighborhood concentrated disadvantage, residential stability, and nearby nonresidential land use on crime at the housing developments. The findings suggest that low-income housing developments are not uniformly criminogenic, and both development characteristics and neighborhood conditions are relevant for understanding crime in low-income housing developments. Implications for prevention are discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract The provision of housing for the low-income has been a major problem in many countries and the developing world has been hard hit. This inability has been the chief cause of the burgeoning slum settlement in cities of the globe where one billion people live in slum areas. The solution to the housing problem lies in the opening up of stakeholders’ participation in the provision of housing, where government, non-governmental organisation, multilateral agencies and the community can play a critical role. Critical in the whole process is the participation of urban poor in the provision of housing for the poor, where they are critical actors in defining housing programmes that best suit the urban poor. This research seeks to analyse the initiatives that have been taken by the urban poor in the city of Bulawayo in providing housing for the poor. The research made use both qualitative and quantitative methodologies in investigating the matter. Questionnaire was the main instrument to collect quantitative data and interviews and field observations were used to collect qualitative data. The research showed that there are a lot positive initiatives by the urban poor in the city of Bulawayo to provide house for the urban poor and these initiatives appear appealing to the poor as they are giving them a roof over their heads, which was never a dream in their lives. Though they appear noble they however fall far too short to provide sustainable housing to the poor as they appear to be a potential health hazard for the city. There is need for city authorities or any interested stakeholder to provide more support to such initiatives so that they can provide more sustainable housing for the poor. This will produce a housing scheme that will contribute to reduction of slum dwellers as called by the Millennium Development Goals.

Abstract:
Although the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) is the primary vehicle through which subsidized rental housing is developed in the United States, we know little about whether residents in LIHTC units can actually afford their rent. This article examines affordability as defined by the cost burden measure for nearly 38,000 Florida LIHTC households. Results indicate that the majority of LIHTC residents are cost burdened, and a smaller proportion are severely cost burdened. Results are presented based on race, ethnicity, and income, with separate analyses for LIHTC tenants who do not participate in the Housing Choice Voucher program and those who do. Findings indicate that Whites typically do not fare better than minorities in terms of cost burden in LIHTC developments. Further, participation in the Housing Choice Voucher program does not necessarily prevent cost burden. LIHTC residents with household incomes between 50% and 60% of area median fare best in avoiding cost burden.

Abstract:
Despite the importance of housing in human life, the provision of adequate and affordable housing for all people is one of the current problems of the human society because almost half of the world’s population lives in poverty and about 600 to 800 million people reside in substandard housing conditions. The present study, therefore, has been conducted in order to identify the needy groups and, too, housing the low-income groups in Isfahan City. The study is a fundamental-applied research adopting a descriptive-analytical methodology. Variables of the research are the income deciles, housing quantity developments, land and housing prices, the system of housing finance, housing status in the expenditure basket of the low-income households, the Gini coefficient of housing costs, the effective demand for housing in the income deciles considering the area of infrastructure and the access to housing index. The findings reveal that the year 2008 had the highest increase in the housing prices with an increase as 20.4% and the lowest one refers to the year 2010 with an increase as 8.6%. The Gini coefficient of housing cost for urban households shows a downtrend until 2005 and from 2006 onward, the gap has started to increase. Regarding access to the housing index, the results show that in 2003 the low income decile could afford one square meter of housing by saving the total household income for 75 days; whereas in 2011, this degree raised to 206 days. What is noteworthy here is the deep gap between the high-income and low-income deciles in the saving days for one square meter, which differs 10.5 times between the first decile and the tenth decile.

Abstract:
The article explores the transformations low-income women make to appropriate their housing that often goes unnoticed. The aim is to document, acknowledge and make low-income women's efforts to appropriate their housing visible. Lessons learned are assumed to inform the Ugandan low-income housing discourse on design considerations that can contribute to the provision of housing designs that are conducive to low-income women. The study confines its investigation to the housing designs provided under the governmental low-income housing projects in Uganda. This article presents results from a case study on Masese Women Housing Project MWHP that targeted women as its main beneficiaries. Post Occupancy Evaluations POE methodology was utilised to collect data on the performance of the housing designs provided by the project and the transformations women make to increase their housing appropriateness. Open-ended interviews were carried out with women owners to investigate the transformations they apply to their houses. Results are documented through photography, sketches and measured drawings. Results are synthesised and analysed under outdoors and indoors transformations. The study confirmed the substantial contribution low-income women make to appropriate their housing. It argues for acknowledging and including women's efforts in the Ugandan low-income housing discourse to support the provision of housing designs that are more user-friendly to them. Design considerations that are essential to attain low-income women convenience with their housing are: its capacity to accommodate women's triple roles, their potential for incremental development and their ability for segmentation into autonomous housing units to allow for their flexible, economic and functional use. The study advocates for directing efforts to the development of traditional building technologies instead of introducing improved but alien ones as an alternative that is more favourable to women.

Abstract:
Each year, the federal government provides billions of dollars in support for low-income families in their acquisition of housing. In this analysis, we examine how several of these subsidized housing programs, public housing and Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) financed housing, relate to patterns of school segregation for children. We use GIS to examine the location of subsidized housing vis-à-vis district boundaries and school attendance boundaries in four Texas counties. We then examine patterns of segregation between schools with and without subsidized housing in their attendance zones, as well as the extent of economic and racial isolation experienced by students in those schools. Our results illustrate that public housing and LIHTC housing developments are zoned to racially and economically isolated schools, and that developments are associated with especially high levels of economic and racial isolation for Black and Latinx students. We conclude by discussing implications for housing and education policy to ameliorate these patterns.

Abstract:
This article focuses on the identification and illustration of the shift in low income housing policy and implementation in Thailand. Housing is one of the major sectors of national development; it plays a vital role in a developing country. Policy and housing mechanisms have witnessed major shifts toward affordable housing since 1973, mainly implemented by the public sector. This article is concerned with the decentralization of the governmental role in providing shelters for low income groups to the present-day civil society activity in the creation of affordable housing. The role of civic social innovation in urban development was a result of key social structure changes to strengthen a community based on social capital. An affordable house is not a spatial organization but rather a reflection of social movement planning. The objectives of the study were (1) To analyze a comparative study between public sector and civic society approaches to affordable housing development by NHA and CODI; (2) To analyze the lesson learnt from development projects by government and civil society, using a thorough analysis of the process of participatory subsidies; (3) To identify the government policy and civic society by NHA and CODI effects on urban development processes in Bangkok Metropolitan Areas. This could help NHA to identify any necessary changes to policies to encourage low income housing development; and (4) To recommend a policy of affordable housing developments for the low income group. The research method comprised a field-base case study using observation, interviews, and questionnaires, which was conducted among a random selection sample of 200 households in Baan Eua Ah-torn Project and Baan Man Kong Project. These findings provide a policy framework that brings together three concepts. First, a policy of providing for low income groups alone is not effective in the development of housing projects; it should mix income groups for sustainable housing development. Second, Baan Man Kong Project places more emphasis on the process and continuity of development than Baan Eua Ah-torn projects. Third, both projects will support the housing shortage. In the final section, conclusions are drawn about social innovation in governmental policy, focusing on empowering experiments with decentralization and governmental democracy accessible to civil society and its interests.

Abstract:
Since the mid-century proliferation of public housing, policy makers and environmental justice advocates have exposed the fact that geographically and economically isolated public housing sites are ultimately detrimental to residents and communities. In recent years, more progressive housing policies have emphasized the importance of site location in the success of housing programs. This study explores the intersection of affordable housing policy and “food desert” research, by assessing the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program in California, with specific attention to the grocery store category within the Site Amenities section. Since the inception of the LIHTC program in 1986, the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) has made multiple revisions to its application process. The study evaluates the current accessibility of grocery stores from LIHTC sites in Alameda and Santa Clara Counties in Northern California. It also critiques the changes in application scoring, criteria, and the indicators of food facility proximity and quality, identifying weaknesses, recommendations, and areas for further research. It finds that despite CTCAC’s efforts to improve the effectiveness of the application, there does not seem to improvement in grocery store access over time. Further research is needed to determine whether this condition is a result of a failure on the part of the application process, or of high land costs and limited availability of developable land.

The Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) has arguably been the most successful government subsidy to finance affordable housing. Since its creation in the Tax Reform Act of 1986 as Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 42, the LIHTC program has helped finance over 1,670,000 housing units. LIHTC has endured the test of time due to its strength both in the public policy and political spheres as well as its effectiveness in attracting significant private capital and in encouraging private oversight. The collapse of corporate earnings in late 2008 led to the subsequent collapse of the LIHTC syndication markets as demand for LIHTCs practically evaporated. Proposed affordable housing developments that anticipated receiving private investment through the sale of LIHTCs stalled. In response to the overall national housing crises, Congress enacted the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA 2008), which contained numerous LIHTC amendments. In early 2009, Congress passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), which temporarily converted the LIHTC program into a grant program. While HERA 2008 and ARRA were well intentioned, ARRA is a stopgap measure that could become costly to the US budget. This thesis argues that additional changes to IRC Section 42 should be implemented by Congress in order to reinvigorate the LIHTC syndication markets and improve LIHTC efficiency. This thesis will first provide a detailed, yet comprehensible, background on how the LIHTC functions.
(cont.) Armed with that background, the reader will then be introduced to the recent legislation affecting the LIHTC program. Finally, additional changes to the LIHTC will be proposed that, if enacted by Congress, should serve to further strengthen the LIHTC program and help revive affordable housing production. These changes include but are not limited to: expanding the passive investor rules to individuals, permitting LIHTC investors to carryback the LIHTC for five years, amending the LIHTC state allocation formula, accelerating the 10 year credit period, implementing methods to better control development and program costs, and expanding the Community Reinvestment Act.

Abstract:
Honduras faces the highest levels of economic inequality in Latin America, 66% of the population live in poverty, 8.1% is the unemployment rate and 1.1 million the housing deficit. One million affordable housing units need to be built to cover the shortfall, which is concentrated mainly in Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Sula and Choloma. Building at least half a million new homes and improving about 600,000 that do not meet the minimum conditions of habitability is what is needed in Honduras, particularly in the cities of San Pedro Sula and Tegucigalpa is required. In Honduras, the government has the goal to massify new low-income affordable housing developments around cities, with an estimated 12,000 new households to be constructed across Honduras by the end of 2018. But as in most developing countries, sustainable design is not taken into consideration when it comes to affordable housing developments, yet low income-families are highly affected from increasing energy prices and environmentally related health issues. These large-scale projects could minimize local and global environmental impacts and improve the quality of life of its inhabitants, if sustainable guiding standards are embraced during design, construction, and maintenance. The rising cost of utilities are affecting low-income families in “affordable” housing developments, the energy expenses force them to make hard choices between basic needs or going back to informal settlements. For this reason, reducing operating and maintenance cost should be a priority for low-income housing design Passive design is any technology or strategy that increase energy-efficiency and thermal comfort by taking advantage of the climate, without the need for expensive mechanical systems. The study analyses different passive design strategies that are applicable for affordable housing developments. Such strategies are orientation, shading, natural ventilation, daylight, and open spaces. The aim is to address energy efficiency and thermal comfort by evaluating and suggesting solutions that improve the quality of life of low-income families in affordable housing developments. The application of passive design strategies showed a 44% reduction in electric utilities, a base case and a proposed design was modeled in eQuest, energy modeling software. The results show a significant reduction towards low-income families’ housing expenses.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 214-230).
There are a number of historically familiar and unfamiliar forces at work in low-income communities in the United States. Recurrent forces include rapidly changing economic and demographic trends, Welfare Reform, and the increasing demand for affordable housing and a living wage. This thesis, through research-based exploration and observations of a particular information technology transfer project, considers a relatively contemporary concern known as the Digital Divide (U.S. Department of Commerce, 1995, 1997, 1999 & 2000) and examines the impacts that IT may have on low-income residents' ability to address their own challenges. This thesis uses data collected from a two-year longitudinal study, which we called the Camfield Estates-MIT Creating Community Connections Project, in order to address the following question(s): Can personal computing and high-speed Internet access support community building efforts; and can this access to technology empower low-income community residents to do more themselves? We gain insight into the likelihood that residents who have a personal computer and Internet access in their homes will feel a sense of community, will experience an increase in their social contact with others, and will strengthen their social ties. This research also explores whether outcomes gained through in-home computing can promote an increased sense of empowerment and the capacity to independently access relevant information related to a resident's needs, wants or purposes. Camfield Estates is a small, low- to moderate-income, housing development in Roxbury, Massachusetts with significant historical ties to its surrounding community.
(cont.) Camfield's residents and its leaders' developmental successes and difficulties provided a unique opportunity to observe the effects of in-home computing on project participants' ability to communicate with other participants, fellow residents and family and friends outside of the Camfield community. Thirty-seven participating households received a free computer and training with 20 completing follow-up interviews. The majority of participating households were single parent, African-American and Hispanic female-headed households with related children under 18 years of age. Results indicated significant computer and Internet use and some positive correlation between frequency of in-home computing/internet use and participants feeling a part of the Camfield community. There was no evidence that in-home computer use led to family and/or social isolation. In-home computing complemented by the local neighborhood technology center (NTC) was frequently used for activities consistent with a sense of empowerment and self- sufficiency goals. Despite the initiative's overall costs (hardware, software, training, Internet service and technical support), in-home computing appears to add a valuable dimension beyond the local NTC. Taking advantage of changing technology, improved web services, and opportunities for integration with other social services are likely to increase the potential value of in-home computing and reduce the cost and technical expertise required for future projects of this kind.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to investigate the socio-economic perceptions of the beneficiaries of the low income housing scheme in Unit P, of Mdantsane Township, under Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were utilised in this study. For instance, questionnaires on the perceptions were administered amongst twenty (20) beneficiaries of this low housing scheme. Semi structured interviews were conducted amongst five (5) respondents who participated in the survey design. The study found that the intervention of providing poor people with houses was not appropriately done as these houses are too small and therefore fail to consider the families of the beneficiaries although the South African government seems to have succeeded to some extent in providing low income housing for the unemployed and those that belong to the low income category. The study also found that the location of Unit P poses a threat because it is located away from all the amenities compelling the beneficiaries to travel more than 5km to the amenities and essential services. The study therefore recommends that the government employs competent contractors that would do a proper job. State officials, tasked with overseeing the various state funded housing projects, have to ascertain the success of these projects by making sure that the contractors do not lack skills such as the ability to facilitate projects of a high magnitude as that could lead to flawed projects. They should be constantly monitored and post evaluated. This will help to minimize the wasting of state resources.

One of the most important social problems in Colombia is the shortage of adequate affordable housing for the low income households. By the year 2000, Bogota alone had a housing shortage of about 540 thousand houses concentrated mainly on the three lower socioeconomic levels which represented 86% of the population of the city. As a response to the problem, the central government has traditionally supported the ownership of affordable housing through direct subsidies granted to qualifying low income households. However, given the constraints in the resources of capital available in the country, and the magnitude of the problem, the government support has only been able to solve part of the housing needs of low income families. The promotion of low income rental housing is an alternative that combined with the traditional support for home ownership will better serve the housing needs of the low income households in the country. This thesis aims to analyze the financial feasibility of the development of low income rental housing in the country by analyzing the case of Bogota. Based on an analysis of the American affordable rental housing policy, the thesis suggests a mechanism of government subsidies for the development of low income rental housing in the country. Through innovations in the capital markets in the United States, the government has been able to attract private equity for the promotion of affordable rental housing. Based on the Low Income Housing Tax Credit program in the United States, the thesis develops a financial model in order to assess the level of support that the central government in Colombia would have to provide to turn the development of affordable rental housing attractive to private investors. The thesis concludes that by leveraging private capital, the Colombian government could promote the development of low income rental housing in the country It finally recommends a new scheme for low income housing subsidies that will attract private equity for the promotion of both ownership and rental low income housing.

Abstract:
Housing Finance system has provided funds to households and organizations for buying their homes and premises. There are different type of housing finance systems which are applied by different countries. Housing finance systems can be more efficient, if private sector and public sector work together and harmoniously. Housing Finance system has made considerable progress in Turkey in the last 20 years. Before housing finance system was developed in Turkey, people could have bought houses by combining their retirement allowances and savings. Another method for financing their house, people could have borrowed from relatives or close friends along with their own savings. The Mass Housing Law (Law No: 2985) entered into force in 1984.The main target of the law, to find a solution of the housing problem in Turkey. Law also determines the tasks of the Housing Development Administration (TOKİ). After 2000’s Turkish Banks began to extend long term housing loans, but there was not mortgage system. Due to inadequate saving and income levels, it was not easy to use banking finance system for the low and middle income groups. In 2007, new legal regulations come into force, which is called Mortgage Law, for improving legal framework for borrowers and lenders in the primary markets and also made regulations for integrating primary mortgage market to the capital markets. In our paper, the finance methods and improvements in the housing finance in Turkey have been analyzed evaluating legal regulations and also the methods which is used by banks and other related institutions.

Abstract:
Referência no planejamento urbano brasileiro, Curitiba também se destaca no Brasil com bons índices econômicos e de qualidade de vida. Todavia, os diferenciais urbanos das regiões centrais da cidade contrastam com uma periferia marcada pelo baixo rendimento e informalidade habitacional. Regiões apartadas da cidade considerada “modelo” abrigam centenas de assentamentos precários e quase a totalidade da habitação de interesse social. A segregação socioespacial em Curitiba se revela especialmente na distância física e social entre as regiões que concentra alta renda àquelas de menores rendimentos. Historicamente, desde as primeiras políticas habitacionais da cidade, a população pobre foi deslocada para conjuntos habitacionais populares às margens da urbe. Mesmo após discussões e avanços legais relacionados à questão urbana e habitacional brasileira e o lançamento de um ousado programa federal habitacional em 2009, verifica-se que a prática de localizar os mais pobres nas piores e mais distantes áreas permanece, reforçando a segregação urbana. Reference in the Brazilian urban planning , Curitiba also stands out with good economic rates and quality of life . However, urban differentials of the central regions of the city contrast with a periphery marked by informality and low-income housing. Regions set apart the city considered "model " concentrate hundreds of slums and almost all of social housing. The socio-spatial segregation in Curitiba is revealed especially in the physical and social distance between regions that concentrates high income to those with lower incomes. Historically, since the first housing policies of the city, the poor population was displaced to reside the borders of the metropolis. Even after discussions and legal developments related to Brazilian urban and housing issues and launching a federal housing program in 2009, it is verified that the practice of locating the poorest in the worst and most remote areas remains, reinforcing the urban segregation.

Abstract:
O presente artigo busca mostrar mudança do paradigma centro-periferia através da análise da dinâmica ocorrida na periferia geográfica de São Carlos, cidade brasileira de porte médio. Este trabalho faz parte de uma pesquisa maior que procura entender o atual processo de apropriação do espaço urbano das cidades médias no estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Com dados estatísticos georreferenciados, utilizou-se como variáveis de análise a renda familiar, a densidade demográfica e a tipologia habitacional, destacando-se especialmente dois movimentos – o da implantação dos conjuntos habitacionais de interesse social, destinados à população de baixa renda, e o da implantação de loteamentos habitacionais com controle de acesso, destinados à população de média-alta e alta rendas. Como resultado da pesquisa, foram identificadas novas formas de segregação socioespacial. This article aims to show the paradigm change center-periphery through an analysis of the current dynamics that occurred in the geographical periphery of Sao Carlos, Brazil midsize city. This work is part of a larger research that seeks to understand the current process of appropriation of the urban space of the medium-sized cities in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. With geo-referenced statistical data, it is used as analysis variables household income, population density and housing typology, highlighting especially two movements - the deployment of housing of social interest, for the low-income population, the deployment and of housing developments with access control, to the population of medium-high and high rents. As a result of the research, new forms of socio-spatial segregation were identified.

Abstract:
In this study, the effects of macro prudential policies on consumer loans in the recent period are examined on the basis of total loan developments and credit type. The findings of the study show that macro prudential policies are quite effective in slowing down the growth rate of total credit and consumer loans for the ultimate purpose. In addition, the overall provisioning and risk weighting regimes provided banks with a modest level of capital adequacy ratios and prevented banks from growing in risky assets. The results of some loan types indicate that credit utilization, determined by changes in interest rates, can also be limited through macro prudential policies. Regulations for credit are not final and invariable. Credit data should be followed up at regular intervals and adjusted to the most appropriate state by tightening or loosening when necessary. In order to balance the large price increases between regions and to prevent speculative movements in the housing market, it is necessary to determine speculative region criteria specific to Turkey and then apply it to prevent speculative price bubbles. It is important to analyze the effect of rapid growth of residential mortgage lending on housing prices and also on the income distribution in the middle and long term. Considering the recent low or negative rate hikes in credit card expenditures, the effects of the flexibility introduced in installment numbers in September 2016 should be monitored in the upcoming period. Restrictions should be somewhat eased if they are not sufficient.

Abstract:
The development of social housing In Mexico during the last decade has been supported by the different levels of government (federal, state, and municipal) in order to assist low-income families. The accelerated construction that takes place in order to address the housing deficit causes a reduction in the quality of design and construction, which is also affected by rising building costs. Environmental comfort conditions inside the dwellings are reduced drastically when houses are constructed without considering climate conditions, especially in hot arid regions. This situation generates uncomfortable thermal conditions for users and high-energy costs due to the unavoidable need of air conditioning. User profiles, architectural program, comfort preferences and guidelines for design and construction of future dwellings in the city of Hermosillo, in northwest Mexico, were determined by surveying beneficiaries of government affordable housing programs. One survey measured the degree of satisfaction of inhabitants in a sample of over 370 households; a second survey sampled 200 households and was aimed at determining aspects of comfort. This paper describes the results of thermal simulations carried out on two housing models. The first model represents the type usually constructed by commercial developers, and the second is a proposal developed by the research team according to guidelines based on the results of the research project described before. This study is a preliminary step in the construction of a physical model for experimental research and demonstration.

Abstract:
<p>Affordable, sustainable housing plays an essential role in providing equal opportunity for individuals within most communities in the United States, (e.g., in the area of eastern Washington State). In particular, a lack of family residences presents a challenge for the City of Spokane, and low-income residents. Moreover, building materials reuse is an important sustainability issue and concrete waste from demolition of residential buildings presents a challenge. This paper presents preliminary results for development of rubblized concrete foundations. Initial tests were conducted on scaled pseudo-soil/concrete materials to observe the relative stiffness of the proposed system for potential use in planning subsequent phases of testing, including full-scale testing. Initial results of this early testing confirms that a reinforced rubblized footing will likely have an overall stiffness (in terms of response to loading) that is measurably less than that of a conventional reinforced concrete footing.</p><p><br clear="none"/></p>

Abstract:
The pandemic has highlighted the importance of sanitary, affordable, and secure housing. This publication shares lessons from Asian Development Bank (ADB) assistance in the housing sector between 2000 and 2020. It notes the need to balance supporting the poor and vulnerable with making markets work better. The authors identify two essential components of an effective housing ecosystem: (i) well-targeted subsidies for low-income households, and (ii) housing finance and supply for middle-income households that enables them to pay their own way.

Abstract:
This report presents a policy proposal for a new, federally coordinated approach to magnet school development, conducted under the framework of the Fair Housing Act’s mandate to affirmatively further fair housing. This proposal envisions an interagency effort conducted by both the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the U.S. Department of Education, and potentially incorporating programs managed by other federal agencies, such as the Internal Revenue Service’s Low-Income Housing Tax Credit. This report offers an opportunity to improve and refine several legal and policy tools for desegregating schools and communities.
