Housing as an Asset
Mon, August 10, 4:00 to 5:30pm, TBASession Submission Type: Paper Session (90 minute)
Description
Americans’ wealth holdings are dominated by the value of their home, making it an incredibly important asset for understanding patterns of inequality. This session will explore topics focused on the assetization of housing including inequalities in homeownership rates across places and groups, how housing contributes to debt through taxation, and the role of property assessment in inequities in housing values. For all CUSS sessions, we welcome research centering topics of race, racism, and racialization; international research; and research on urban, suburban, and rural spaces.
