If you're searching for an introductory one-volume treatment of this subject that is also well written and researched, you'd be hard-pressed to top this book. That's not to say that I don't have quibbles; the book could have contained more critical insight and still would have worked fine as an introductory level text.For example both the Low Income Housing Tax Credit and the public housing chapters (chapters 5 and 6) seem to take the inherent value of "deconcentration" and "mixed income" at face value, at a time when both notions are finally beginning to receive long overdue critical attention from social scientists (besides William Julius Wilson), not just planners, pundits, and politicians. It turns out that these notions are highly problematic in their actual application. As Edward Goetz and others have pointed out about the HOPE VI program for instance, "the program is not so much about improving the conditions for previous residents as it is about reclaiming urban neighborhoods for middle- income families." This is a stronger statement than Schwartz makes on p. 118 of the book where he observes instead that the program "does not necessarily improve the lives of all the residents of the original public housing."It is also neither fair nor balanced for Schwartz to neglect to mention that the 1937 U.S. Housing Act, as one of its many compromises, ITSELF required segregated housing projects (in the book he suggests that segregated public housing was more of a local phenomenon). He also overemphasizes the role of elected officials in Black neighborhoods who he says did not want integrated housing because it would have affected their political base. Does he mean to honestly suggest that the black desire to hold on to what limited political power it possessed during the Jim Crow 1930's is somehow to blame as much for segregated public housing in America as the actions of people such as Rep. Henry Steagall (the House sponsor of the bill) of Alabama? Schwartz's simple and direct discussion of racism in the FHA earlier in the book is better and more honest.Then there's the simple but honest critical question that Schwartz doesn't really tackle: at a time of record profits in the secondary mortgage market (discussed in pages 56-62), how is it that housing affordability problems continue to exist and in some cases even worsen in city after American city?On the plus side, the fair housing chapter (chapter 11) is excellent, as is the "stubborn facts of housing policy" section of the last chapter. Also, Schwartz's summary of HUD's programs for the homeless and disabled is one of the most concise I have read.In the end my nitpicks do not detract from the fact that Schwartz has written the most accessible and comprehensive introductory text on American housing policy out there. By explaining the often byzantine laws and rules governing housing finance, he has performed a much-needed public service. And by clarifying why housing matters (and will continue to matter) in the way that he does, he is positively contributing to a growing and much needed debate.

Excellent overview. Gives a sense of historical development and current data. Well written for a general audience.

Best all around affordable housing book, a must read. Everyone in affordable reads this as a rite of passage to understand what we do. He was also my professor and got me into this world. The guy knows what he is talking about!!!

Ordered for college. Barely used. Arrived just fine.

Great synopsis and summaries of US differing housing policies. However, does not go in depth discussion of other housing policy issues such as government support for Fannie/Freddie Mac, Federal Home Loan Banks, mortgage interest deduction

I purchased this book for a course on real estate development. It was very helpful, especially for its discussions of federal affordable housing programs such as Low Income Housing Tax Credits and HOPE VI. Well written, clear, and a great reference material for real estate developers and urban planners working in the housing policy sector.

NO PAGE NUMBERS in Kindle Version ?????- (Housing Policy In The United States)(NOTE) I have not read the entire book yet.Beyond the issue I explain below it looks like the ebook should read fine, but as stated I have not read it in its entirety.Purchased this eBook for class.Disappointed because it DOES NOT HAVE PAGE NUMBERS.Amazon says it's the Publisher's (Routledge) fault.Only Routledge (eBook division) can fix this.Amazon states they can only take a report and forward it to eBook division.No clue to when it will be addressed, maybe a few days, a month or longer.Questioned Amazon representative, "Why doesn't Amazon require Publishers to indicate if their ebook doesn't have page numbers that coincide with the physical textbook?", no real answer was given but it sounded like upper management has not deemed it important to do.I've had the report logged already, and we are awaiting word IF or WHEN anything will be done about this MAJOR ISSUE.I'm not sure if Amazon or Routledge (eBook division) think that this is a MAJOR ISSUE, but for me as a student it seems like a Major Issue when instructors are assigning readings by page numbers.Contacted Routledge and that was when I was referred to their eBook division who handle this.They direct me to contact Ms. R P (I can't state their name or contact number here per Amazon rules).I called and the number isn't even theirs but another individual's extension, but I leave a message anyway.I called back to Routledge again a third time and they give me Ms. R P's NYC number which I call and again leave another message. She is the director and I hope there is something to that title and concern that their product is defective.Summary:I hope that they fix this so I can do my readings for class as needed without issue.Hopefully I can do a MacGyver and wrangle a work around some how (like look at the physical book and search for text in the DEFECTIVE Kindle Version) O_o.I don't understand how a Publisher like Routledge (eBook) or Amazon could allow a product like this to be sold in this defective condition or allow it to be still sold. Textbooks in Kindle format without page numbers are defective. Students who are directed to read from page X to page Y or to stop at page Z are left out in the could with no recourse of accountable complaint. You are basically dropping your complaint into a bottomless hole and hoping on a prayer for a resolution or response.My trust in Amazon is shaken and can't say confidently like I would in the past that Amazon is a great place to purchase an item especially a textbook now. We'll see what Amazon's response is and especially Routledge's (eBook division) is.Amazon in the past was a 5 Star Online Store Front - Now, maybe a 2 Star (this is such a no brainer REQUIRED Feature that should have been a standard feature for Textbooks especially - this is NOT a romance novel!)

I don't think there is really any competition for Schwartz in the housing policy textbook arena. The book was comprehensive in the first edition, and it has been updated frequently and well. This latest edition establishes HPITUS as the central text on US housing policy. It covers all the foundational topics and is delivered without favoritism. It should be read first, purchased in hardback, and keep as a resource.
