Abstract

This TR reports findings from a class project interviewing residents of San Jose, CA, on housing needs. Besides finding considerable concern and actual deprivation (e.g., more occupants than bedrooms) among lower-income residents, the interviewers also found perceived deprivation relative to what the residents considered they ought to have. Housing
problems were associated with many other factors, including neighborhood and school quality and crime rates.
