The federal government spends more than 40 billion dollars every year on different housing programs andpolicies designed to improve the housing and neighborhood environments by low-income families. Much of this effort is directed towards families living in concentrated poverty. Recent research shows that neighborhood conditions during childhood play an important role in determining later-life outcomes of low-income children. Yet, there is little rigorous evidence on which types of housing and neighborhood policies and interventions are effective in improving long-run and intergenerational economic and socialoutcomes for low-income families. This project uses long and linked administrative data and experimental methods to study the long-term and multi-generational effectiveness of different housing and neighborhood policies targeted toward low income families. The results of this research project will provide evidence on the type of housing interventions that are effective in improving the livings standards of poor households as well as study the multi-generational effects of such housing policies. In addition, it will provide guidance on crafting and implementing the most effective housing policies that have long-term positive benefits across generations. In so doing, the research project could also help establish the US as a global leader in how to provide efficient housing for the poor. This project, consists of three studies, investigates the long-term effectiveness of various public housing programs in improving the living standards of beneficiaries across generations. The first study uses a randomized housing assistance wait-list to evaluate two of the largest federal low-income housing programs: public housing and housing vouchers. The second study leverages newly linked administrative data to re-examine one of the earliest housing mobility programs to assess the very long-run effects of housing mobility interventions. The third study examines the multi-generational effects of three place-based policies targeted to disadvantaged areas. These studies bring together rigorous research designs and linked longitudinal administrative data on outcomes such as earnings, employment, college attendance, financial strain, health, and mortality to provide new evidence on the effects of a range of housing and neighborhood policies on the economic opportunities and well-being of low-income families in the U.S. The results will inform optimal design of federal housing and neighborhood policies. More broadly, this work will enhance social science knowledge by investigating how and why some housing and neighborhood policies create long-run economic opportunity for the children and adults, and others do not.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

联邦政府每年在不同的住房计划和旨在改善低收入家庭的住房和邻里环境上的不同住房计划和质地上花费超过400亿美元。 这项工作的大部分是针对生活在集中贫困的家庭。最近的研究表明，儿童期的邻里状况在确定低收入儿童的后期生活中起着重要作用。然而，几乎没有严格的证据表明，哪些类型的住房，邻里政策和干预措施有效地改善了低收入家庭的长期和代际经济和社会情绪。该项目使用长期链接的行政数据和实验方法来研究针对低收入家庭的不同住房和邻里政策的长期和多代效率。 该研究项目的结果将提供有关住房干预措施类型的证据，这些干预措施有效地改善了贫困家庭的生计标准，并研究了此类住房政策的多代效应。 此外，它将提供有关制作和实施最有效的住房政策的指导，这些政策在各个世代具有长期积极的好处。 这样一来，研究项目还可以帮助将美国作为全球领导者，以如何为穷人提供有效的住房。该项目由三项研究组成，研究了各种公共住房计划在改善世代受益者生活水平方面的长期有效性。第一项研究使用随机住房援助等待名单来评估两个最大的联邦低收入住房计划：公共住房和住房凭证。 第二项研究利用新近将行政数据联系起来，重新检查最早的住房流动计划之一，以评估住房流动性干预的长期影响。第三项研究研究了针对弱势地区的三种基于地位的政策的多代政策。 这些研究汇集了严格的研究设计，并将纵向行政数据联系起来，诸如收入，就业，大学出勤，财务压力，健康和死亡率等结果，以提供有关住房和邻里政策对经济机会和经济机会的影响的新证据。在美国，低收入家庭的福祉将为联邦住房和邻里政策的最佳设计提供信息。从更广泛的角度来看，这项工作将通过调查某些住房和社区政策如何以及为何为儿童和成人创造长期的经济机会来增强社会科学知识，而其他人则不会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为值得支持。通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛影响的评论标准进行评估。
