Domestic Urban and Regional Studies Research Projects
One of the Center's traditional fields of strength is the analysis of economic and social policy issues in cities, urban concentrations and regions. Among the topics of research have been state economic development, the location of foreign investment, housing finance, entrepreneurship, and racial discrimination. A recently completed project provided nationwide estimates of racial and ethnic discrimination in the housing market. Support for these studies has come from the State of New York, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, the Russell Sage Foundation, and other sources.
