| Publisher Description: While neighborhood quality is important for public policy, it is also difficult to quantify. This study measures neighborhood quality using data from two sources: the 2002 American Housing Survey (AHS), and HUD's Customer Satisfaction Survey (CSS) of Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCVP) households. Survey responses are analyzed regarding neighborhood quality, home quality, and crime perceptions. Tract level Bayesian estimates are computed using AHS metro level data and CSS census tract data. |
