These five cities were chosen for their activist municipal administrations, robust policy agendas, and viable partnerships. Contributors familiar with each city evaluate the impact of equity investments and extract lessons for municipal leaders and policy agendas. Building on the past experiences of progressive cities, each case study city offers fresh perspectives and examples, told through a rigorous analysis of socioeconomic data and program outcomes combined with engaging stories about specific municipal administrations and policy agendas. 410 0$aSUNY series on urban public policy. 606 $aCities and towns$zUnited States 606 $aUrban policy$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aUrban economics 606 $aSociology, Urban$zUnited States 615 0$aCities and towns 615 0$aUrban policy 615 0$aUrban economics. 615 0$aSociology, Urban 676 $a307.760973 701 $aBennett$b Michael I.
