Research Findings: Areas of high success

  • High quality design of buildings and grounds
  • Increased safety and security
  • Neighborhood impact
  • Decreased crime
  • Increased private and public investment
slide-19
SLIDE 19

Research Findings: Areas of mixed success

  • Promoting and sustaining mixed-occupancy
  • Generally strong demand for market-rate rental
  • For-sale demand dependent on market conditions
  • Low rates of return of public housing residents
  • Substantial turnover in market-rate rental
  • Changes in intended mix: rental conversions, vouchers
slide-20
SLIDE 20

Research Findings: Areas of low success

  • Building community/“Effective neighboring”
  • “Us versus them” dynamics
  • Social isolation, exclusion and stigma
  • Challenges re: public space, norms, governance
  • Promoting individual social/economic mobility
  • No evidence of general improvements
  • Limited resources for sustained social supports
slide-21
SLIDE 21

“Incorporated Exclusion”

Physical integration reproduces marginality and leads to withdrawal and alienation rather than engagement and inclusion. Chaskin and Joseph (2015)

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Youth in Mixed-Income Developments:

Unexpected Challenges

  • High expectations
  • Youth as beneficiaries of social mixing
  • Youth as social bridges
  • Low youth interaction
  • Differential parent management
  • Different ages, schools, activities
  • Low-income black youth as flashpoints
  • Perceived loitering and delinquency
  • Social control and rules rather than engagement
slide-23
SLIDE 23

Implications for Policy and Practice:

Mitigating “incorporated exclusion”

  • Marketing diverse, urban places
  • Intentional vs. “organic” community-building
  • Proactive mixed-income property management
  • Inclusive decision-making: towards shared norms
slide-24
SLIDE 24

Implications for Policy and Practice:

Changing social and economic trajectories

  • Post-occupancy supports and services
  • Deep case management where needed
  • From services to capacity/network-building
  • Changing capacities, resources and mindsets
  • A strategic focus on youth
  • Proactive and broad outreach
  • Youth as leaders and designers
