The Durham Community Land Trustees

摘要

This study examined the possible impact of the Durham Community Land Trustees (DCLT) on home-owner-occupied rates and median rent in Durham since 1990. Establishing causality in community-based interventions is difficult due to the pragmatic barriers. However, by matching the DCLT census tract to other tracts and comparing them to Durham, the DCLT census tract changes were better isolated. This study used the Neighborhood Change Database to explore the neighborhood characteristics of the DCLT and similar neighborhoods and to test for differences in key housing variables. The results enhance knowledge of CLTs and ways they might contribute to community change.View full textDownload full textKeywordsCommunity land trusts, community development, affordable housingRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10705422.2012.731638
