This study examined the socio-economic impact of home ownership in low and moderate income communities resulting from government programs and regulations. The U.S. government has spent billions to increase home ownership in these communities through initiatives like the Community Reinvestment Act and programs like HOPE VI. However, little research has assessed the effectiveness of this spending on community outcomes. This study analyzed data on crime rates, unemployment, high school graduation rates, and test scores from two Chicago community areas and two Indiana counties with differing levels of housing growth. The purpose was to determine if higher home ownership from government efforts resulted in improved socio-economic conditions as measured by these indicators.
