Title: U.S. Housing Patterns, Living Arrangements, and Life Chances PDF
Url: http://d32ogoqmya1dw8.cloudfront.net/files/sp/ssdan/examples/exercises...
Creator: Kayongo-Male, Diane
Publisher: South Dakota State University
Description: In this assignment you will use U.S. census data to get an overview of housing patterns (ownership and types of housing) and living arrangements as a way of understanding more about one example of what Weber referred to as life chances (or, basically, the ability to access to resources we need to live a good life). As well, access to housing is considered one of the main features of the American Dream. Unfortunately, as the need for low-income housing units has doubled over the last three decades, the number of low-income housing units nationwide has been cut in half. Minneapolis and other cities have established annual goals for increasing the stock of affordable housing in response to a severe shortage of low-cost housing.
