Abstract
ABSTRACT:This study examines the external neighborhood effects of Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Projects built in Santa Clara County, California from 1987 to 2000. Three types of developers have built LIHTC projects in this area: nonprofit, for-profit, and a county public housing authority. Using a difference-in-difference hedonic regression approach, this study finds that almost all the LIHTC projects examined have generated significantly positive impacts on nearby property value. In particular, the study also finds that most nonprofit projects have delivered benefits similar to those of for-profit projects. Yet projects built by some of the largest nonprofits and the county housing authority have generated the greatest neighborhood impacts. Low-income neighborhoods have also benefited more from LIHTC developments than other types of neighborhoods.
