Description
Housing Choice Vouchers (HCVs) provide low-income households subsidies to afford housing they could not otherwise afford. Tenant pays 30% of rent and the government pays the remaining 70%. Goals of HCVs are to provide improved access to housing and to promote integration of urban neighborhoods. Researchers have long suspected that HCVs are not accomplishing their goals, and a growing body of literature supports this hypothesis. This poster examines where HCV recipients are located in St. Louis and how clustered those households are compared to other low income residents.
