1264 - Persistent and Evolving Patterns of Discrimination in the Housing Market
Sat, August 10, 10:30am to 12:10pm, Sheraton New York, Floor: Third Floor, Carnegie WestSession Submission Type: Paper Session 100min
Description
Over a half century after the Fair Housing Act was passed, scholars continue to document discrimination in the housing market. This session will explore cutting edge research on the ways households make structurally-selected decisions in the housing market and how bias against disadvantaged groups shapes disparate outcomes. Beyond straightforward analysis of racial disparities, we will discuss heterogeneity in bias manifestation as well as heretofore understudied sources of discrimination.
