The history of housing shows long-run social progress, littered with major disasters; nevertheless the progress is often forgotten, whilst the difficulties hit the headlines. Housing Economics provides a long-term economic perspective on macro and urban housing issues, from the Victorian era onwards. A historical perspective sheds light on modern problems and the constraints on what can be achieved; it concentrates on the key policy issues of housing supply, affordability, tenure, the distribution of migrant communities, mortgage markets and household mobility. Local case studies are interwoven with city-wide aggregate analysis. Three sets of issues are addressed: the underlying reasons for the initial establishment of residential neighbourhoods, the processes that generate growth, decline and patterns of integration/segregation, and the impact of historical development on current problems and the implications for policy. 606 $aEconomics 606 $aManagement science 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aUrban economics 606 $aCities and towns?History 606 $aEconomics, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W00000 606 $aSocial Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020 606 $aUrban Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49010 606 $aUrban History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/727000 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aManagement science. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aUrban economics. 615 0$aCities and towns?History. 615 14$aEconomics, general. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aUrban Economics. 615 24$aUrban History. 676 $a330 700 $aMeen$b Geoffrey$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0982627 702 $aGibb$b Kenneth$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aLeishman$b Chris$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aNygaard$b Christian$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254879803321 996 $aHousing Economics$92242535 997 $aUNINA
