This document discusses a neighborhood taxonomy project conducted by Living Cities and RW Ventures. It aims to develop a comprehensive neighborhood taxonomy and measurement of neighborhood change. The project measures change using a repeat sales index, examines overall patterns of change, and analyzes drivers of change. Key findings include: 1) neighborhood change is a gradual process but some neighborhoods experience substantial shifts; 2) regional effects account for about 35% of neighborhood changes; 3) the primary driver of change is the movement of people into neighborhoods with undervalued housing and good fundamentals.

Optimizing IP Networks for Uncertain Demands Using Outbound Traffic ConstraintsEM Legacy
This document summarizes an approach for optimizing routing in IP networks with uncertain traffic demands. The approach uses simple outbound traffic constraints at each node to bound the maximum traffic originating from that node. It formulates the traffic engineering problem to find optimal link weights that minimize maximum link utilization under these demand uncertainties. Computational results on a sample network show the impact of the proposed uncertainty models on performance measures like link utilization.

This document discusses using Gradle to automate and simplify the build process. It compares the process before and after implementing Gradle. Key points:
1. Gradle uses Groovy scripts to automate builds, allowing increased flexibility over XML-based build tools like Ant.
2. The build process is significantly faster and more streamlined with Gradle - testing a single game takes 4 hours instead of 2 weeks.
3. Gradle manages dependencies and uploads/downloads artifacts from a central Nexus repository, keeping all projects up to date and isolated.

It outlines a six-step process for analyzing demand and supply factors to forecast the subject property's market capture and absorption rate. Statistical data on population trends, unemployment, home prices, and inventory is presented to analyze the local market. Absorption is estimated to be approximately 4 years based on an inferred comparable analysis and equal-share capture method.
This document discusses demographic trends in Vermont and their implications for housing. It notes that Vermont's population is aging and household sizes are decreasing. While the population is consolidating in urban areas, workforce and affordable housing remain challenges, especially in Chittenden County. Recent efforts to build more homes have helped but have not fully addressed the need. Policies around incentives for developers, funding sources like bonds and grants, and regulations could help increase housing construction and better meet market demand and affordable housing needs across the state.

Retail development has the potential to contribute to neighborhood revitalization in several ways. Three common retail development strategies are public-led commercial projects, market-led business attraction programs, and commercial district revitalization led by community groups. Case studies of neighborhoods in the San Francisco Bay Area found different retail and economic outcomes depending on the neighborhood's changing income composition, with commercial district revitalization demonstrating the most consistent benefits and retail growth correlating most with increases in middle-income residents. Further research is needed to better understand the relationship between retail growth and changes in neighborhood populations.

This document provides an executive summary of the 2013 Emerging Trends in Real Estate report. Some key points:
- The U.S. real estate recovery is expected to continue at a modest pace in 2013, with gains seen across markets and property sectors. Returns will remain relatively low but attractive given the economic environment.
- Investors are turning to secondary markets and commodity assets to find yields, needing to focus on income-producing properties. New construction remains limited due to weak demand.
- Commercial mortgage issues will take years to resolve as maturities increase; low rates have temporarily bailed out borrowers but rates increases remain a risk. Yields are found in mezzanine debt and preferred equity.
This document discusses the results and benefits of regional scenario planning. It provides examples of scenario planning processes in the Wasatch Front region of Utah and the Portland, Oregon metro area. Scenario planning can influence spending on transportation and development policies, lead to economic development opportunities, and influence regional leaders. The examples show how scenario planning led to increased transit ridership, preserved farmland, reduced vehicle travel, and supported biking and compact development. Factors like mixed uses, density, and amenities were important to making growth concepts successful.
1) Current residential real estate data lacks sophistication and comprehensive localized information that professionals need to make investment decisions. Big data is growing exponentially and will revolutionize real estate like other industries.
2) Real estate involves huge volumes of local, macroeconomic, and household-level data. Applying this data reveals shifts in demographics, increasing dispersion of returns between local markets, and faster market cycles.
3) Case studies show how analyzing shifting demographics can help understand where demand is moving and what products consumers need. Analyzing dispersion of returns between local markets shows the need to refine investment strategies for different market clusters.
Sustainability targets and a struggling housing market are negatively impacting affordable housing delivery in the UK. Tighter lending criteria, falling land and home values, and fewer buyers and sellers have reduced new housing starts. This loss of capacity threatens achieving government targets for affordable housing completion. Meeting sustainability requirements under the Code for Sustainable Homes will further increase costs at a time when development economics are already constrained. However, properly accounting for local housing needs and market conditions may allow projects to remain viable while still achieving sustainability goals.
Similar to Dynamic Neighborhoods: New Tools for Community and Economic Development (20)
This document discusses key findings from CEOs for Cities about the drivers of the new economy and implications for urban policy. It makes several points:
1) National policy is essentially urban policy as cities are disproportionate drivers of economic output and new economic activity.
2) The economy is now global and regional in nature, so urban policy must consider these larger geographic scales.
3) An efficient regional economy uses all of its assets, including developing a knowledgeable workforce and reducing inequality.
It also examines how factors like education, functional specialization, and immigration contribute to economic growth and the need for cities to build on their unique strengths.

Positioning Your Neighborhood for Economic Development: Advanced TrainingRWVentures
Delivered by RW Ventures, Chicago TREND and the Columbus Metropolitan Housing Authority, this pair of training sessions were designed to help communities pursuing retail, industrial land use, small business or other economic development projects think more strategically about how those efforts can align with and leverage other local development activities. The morning session used a case study from Columbus to illustrate how the viability of a retail project can be informed and enhanced by interrelated strategies to revitalize the surrounding neighborhood. The afternoon session used an industrial land redevelopment case study from Atlanta to explore how to connect regional industrial opportunities to neighborhood assets and development - sometimes referred to as "economic place-making."
"Originally developed as a two-day training for HUD Choice Neighborhood program grantees, this presentation was delivered to grantees from NeighborWorks America's Catalytic Grant Program. The training presents the rationale and structure of a new approach to comprehensive neighborhood economic development: ""neighborhood business planning."" After walking through the effects and implications of the transition to the knowledge economy, the presentation provides a framework for seeing neighborhoods as dynamic systems whose role in the economy is to develop and deploy assets (e.g., workers, businesses) into larger markets.
An overview of neighborhood types and their unique roles within regions follows, along with data on the typical trajectories of different neighborhood types. Sections on each of five market levers (human capital, clusters, innovation and entrepreneurship, urban growth form and governance) show how the development of neighborhood goals, market analysis, strategies and initiatives can create neighborhoods of opportunity in connection with their region. Local-facing issues like housing, retail and other amenities are examined in relation to their effect on creating neighborhoods of choice that certain populations are attracted to, influencing a neighborhood's type and trajectory. The presentation concludes with an overview of the most comprehensive application of neighborhood business planning to-date: the Greater Chatham Initiative."
Economic Place-making: How to Develop a "Neighborhood Business Plan"RWVentures
Developed as part of a two-day training for planning and implementation grantees from HUD's Choice Neighborhoods program, this presentation walks through the logic and structure of a new approach to comprehensive neighborhood economic development: "neighborhood business planning." It begins by describing the changes taking place in the knowledge economy, which present opportunities for metropolitan areas and especially urban neighborhoods, and suggest a new approach: neighborhood business planning. The presentation then offers a framework for understanding neighborhoods as dynamic systems whose economic function is to develop and deploy their assets into larger markets.
Market-Based Development to Win the War on PovertyRWVentures
This document discusses the War on Poverty launched in 1964 by President Lyndon B. Johnson and whether it achieved success. It launched nearly 200 pieces of legislation still in place today aimed at both relieving and curing poverty, as well as preventing it. While official poverty rates have declined, measures that account for taxes and transfers show poverty is high and rising relative to community standards. The war on poverty succeeded in keeping over 300 million people out of absolute poverty through social programs, but welfare alone is not sufficient and often creates dependency rather than solving the underlying market causes of poverty. There is a need to shift toward moving people and places back into the economic mainstream through market-based development.

Building on The Changing Dynamics of Urban America, this study examines the relative importance of economic and quality of life factors in attracting and retaining college-educated workers. The project, conducted with Christopher Berry, revealed that the dichotomy of "amenities versus jobs" that seems to dominate the current debate on the issue is misleading: the importance of human capital in today's economy means that both workers and firms are attracted to metropolitan areas with high concentrations of human capital, deployed in networks of knowledge-intensive industries, functions, and occupations.
This presentation provides a baseline assessment of the emerging practice of Inclusive Regional Economic Growth and an economic framework for identifying key challenges and opportunities for aligning growth and inclusion; highlights innovations and issues in the emerging practice; and offers observations about how to better coordinate and scale the practice.

Positioning Your Neighborhood for Economic DevelopmentRWVentures
This document outlines strategic development scenarios for redeveloping an underutilized site owned by the Casey Foundation in Atlanta. Four scenarios are presented: a regional distribution hub, a mixed white/blue collar business services hub, a blue-collar innovation hub, and a mixed-use food development. Tradeoffs of each are analyzed based on job creation, quality and accessibility; market viability; connectivity; and catalytic potential. Three scenarios - a mixed B2B hub, blue-collar innovation hub, and mixed-use food development - were prioritized. A developer has been selected to create a final development scheme integrating priorities around jobs, sustainability, connectivity, and leadership.
Municipal Financing: Current Challenges and Opportunities RWVentures
Municipal governments face significant budget challenges due to outdated systems of governance and revenue structures that are not aligned with the current economy. Revenues have declined as the economy has shifted away from tax bases like property and sales taxes, leading to structural deficits. Expenditures also need to be reduced through measures like cutting labor costs, implementing efficiencies through technology, and consolidating services. Both revenues and expenditures can be addressed through innovative strategies like public-private partnerships, tax reforms, and shared services between jurisdictions. Overall, municipal finance requires new collaborative and flexible models of "governance" rather than traditional "government" to adapt to today's dynamic economy.
Regions Charting New Directions: Metropolitan Business PlanningRWVentures
The document proposes a new approach to metropolitan business planning that is grounded in economics and develops comprehensive and actionable strategies. It involves identifying regional assets and opportunities, developing customized strategies, implementing concrete actions, and building institutional capacity. The goal is to take an integrated, cross-sectoral approach to enhancing regional concentrations, deploying human capital, developing innovation infrastructure, increasing efficiency, and creating effective public institutions to promote sustainable and inclusive prosperity. Key elements include developing a regional investment prospectus, coordinating federal programs through cross-agency teams, and establishing pooled and flexible funding to support regional goals.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

53. The Big Picture:
Drivers of Neighborhood Change
Mobility is the key mechanism of change
Movers are attracted to areas with undervalued housing
but sound economic fundamentals (employment, income,
education, young adults)
Being connected is important: proximity to job centers,
access to transit, lower commuting times are positive
Cultural and Recreational Amenities (art galleries, bars
and restaurants) help, but are not the main event
“The Goldilocks Theory” …
IIe Drivers of Change
… Neighborhoods of Opportunity are “Just Right.”
54. The Big Picture:
Drivers of Neighborhood Change
Race is still a factor: even controlling for income, influx
of minorities in a neighborhood leads to lower
appreciation – but there are important exceptions
Neighborhood Spillovers are important: what happens in
your neighborhood reflects what happens in the
neighborhoods around you
Context matters: substantial variation by type and stage;
current conditions have large effects on degrees and
patterns of change
IIe Drivers of Change
55. DETROIT—Notorious for its abandoned buildings,
industrial warehouses, and gray, dilapidated roads,
Detroit's Warrendale neighborhood was miraculously
revitalized this week by the installation of a single, three-
by-four-foot plot of green space.
The green space, a rectangular patch of crabgrass
located on a busy median divider, has by all accounts
turned what was once a rundown community into a
thriving, picturesque oasis, filled with charming shops,
luxury condominiums, and, for the first time ever, hope.
The Johansens, who just moved to Warrendale, enjoy
some outdoor time.

Subsets of Neighborhoods (e.g. Immigrant, Startup
Family, etc.)
Specialized Drivers: Looking at Particular Neighborhood SegmentsIII
70. Overall Summary Implications
Neighborhoods are highly specialized
Neighborhood change is a function of people and money
moving in and out
This in turn varies based on neighborhood type and stage
of development – different people and investors choose
different neighborhoods in the context of larger markets
and systems
As a result, what matters varies by place. For any given
neighborhood, the goal could be continuity or change in
type, and implementation entails understanding who you
want to stay or move in, and what factors matter
to them
71. Summary Implications
Two major implications:
1. We need a framework for understanding
neighborhoods as dynamic, specialized, and
nested in larger systems
2. We need much better tools for customized
analysis of local economies

Cluster Profile:
These are lower income neighborhoods with a high
percentage of single family homes and a stable resident
base. These areas are also characterized by a significant
presence of vacant land and very few retail and service
establishments. Unemployment rates are lower than in
other low income neighborhoods, and neighborhood
residents tend to be employed in sales, service and
production occupations.

171. Applying Metrics, Findings and Tools:
Auburn Gresham
Specialized Tools - From Diagnostics to InvestmentV
172. Step One: Figure Out Who You Are
(Challenges and Opportunities)
Type 3-A, “Single Parents:” Low income, single family homes, stable
resident base. More children and single parent households.
Underperforming relative to peers: 61% growth in RSI compared to
129% for peer group
“Red Flags”:
– Population Loss: 6% decline between 1990 and 2000
– Business Attrition: Lost over 50% of its retail and service
establishments between 1990 and 2006
– Financial Distress: high percentage of credit past due, high
foreclosure rates
Positive Signs:
– Decline in Unemployment: from 20% to 14% between 1990 and
2000
– Low Crime: crime rates are half of peer group’s
Specialized Tools - From Diagnostics to InvestmentV
173. Step Two: What to Expect and Where You Can Go
What to Expect Based on Model Findings:
– Unlikely to Converge: Targeted Development
Interventions Needed to Spearhead Change
– High Foreclosure and Sub-Prime Lending Rates, on the
Rise Through 2005: Negative Effects Should “Bottom Out”
around 2009-2010
– (Apply Pattern Search Tool: Identify Other Neighborhoods
with Similar Patterns of Change, see what happened next.)
Where You Can Go (Based on Typology): Type 3 neighborhoods
tend to remain the same type, but can transition to Type 7,
“Homeowners” (stable neighborhood, similar housing stock, but
higher income).
What to Aim For: Housing Stock and Demographics Make This
Neighborhood a Good Candidate for Improvement in Place (Which
Would Help Transition to Type 7)
Specialized Tools - From Diagnostics to InvestmentV
174. Step Three: How Can You Get There?
Key Areas of Focus (Based on Model Findings):
– Homeownership
– Build on Positive Employment Trends
– Improve Connection to Jobs
– Address Population Loss and Vacancies (possibly
related to foreclosure issues)
– (Social Capital and Retail)
Possible Interventions:
– Perfect Location for Center for Working Families?
Possible Additional Steps:
– Apply Model Findings to Assess Cost-Benefit of Alternative
Interventions
– Apply Impact Analyst to Evaluate Sites and Programs
– Apply LWR to identify which neighboring communities you
particularly need to work with

I Background: The DNT Project
The vertical dimension in this animation series represents the value of the DNT Repeat Sales Index for every census tract in Chicago
The Y axis in these plots indicates the effect of that variable on the Repeat Sales Index. When boxes cross the 0 line the effect is not statistically significant.
This heat map shows how different variables (listed on the right) group to define distinct neighborhood types. Each row is a variable, and each column is a census tract. The “tree” across the top shows how different census tracts group based on their characteristics. The colors on the map correspond to the value of that variable for each census tract (blue being high and red being low).

Different dimensions tend to define the layers of the taxonomy: Income, foreign born status and type of businesses primarily define the broad types. Within these types, the subclusters are defined primarily by age and land use.
This animation displays the change in the percentage of market-rate housing that is available to someone making 80% of the County median income.
This sample report indicates the trend in affordability, among other things, and can be produced for any geography, including custom neighborhood boundaries.
Among other things, this tools enables us to identify neighborhoods that experienced specific patterns of change and see what factors accounts for a neighborhood following one pattern or another. The three patterns selected here are consistent with different types of gentrification (red and yellow) or gradual growth with preservation of affordability (green).
