Abstract
Neighbor resistance has been a major barrier to the development of group homes in the community. This study describes the effects of a group home on its neighborhood along three dimensions—criminal behavior of the residents, traffic problems and adjacent property values. A survey of key informants in the community revealed that none of the expected problems had occurred. The author describes the locational decisionmaking process within the context of open systems and exchange theories.
