Community Reports


These reports provide in-depth examinations of selected communities in each city and are based on interviews with community members. While the maps are valuable in highlighting spatial changes across the city, these reports describe how and why these changes have come about and how they are experienced by residents. The communities chosen were selected in order to represent a variety of residential experiences. In each city clusters of neighborhoods experiencing either residential transformation or stagnation were identified and one community reflecting the general trends of that area was selected in which interviews were conducted with residents. For more information about who collected this data, visit the "Project Participants" page of this website.
