Rethinking homeownership : why alternative tenure strategies are needed to stabilize neighborhoods in Lawrence, MA

[摘要] (cont.) Further, this thesis examines alternative forms of housing tenure, arguing that neighborhood stability does not accompany increased homeownership, per se, but rather, is facilitated by healthy residential environments where residents choose to stay. Thus, this thesis recommends that Lawrence pursue housing strategies that seek to improve residential stability in distressed neighborhoods, while simultaneously developing a diversity of tenure options for individual households.
