B2b Home Ownership, Age and the Community

Wednesday, May 22, 2019 at 10:45 AM–12:15 PM EDT
F. Scott Fitzgerald B
Key Words

Home Ownership, Age, Income, Crime Rate

Short Description

Home ownership is a key driver of individual consumer and community well-being. It is currently under threat, however, due to scarcity and high costs. Research has shown the relationship between home ownership and a lower crime rate in neighborhoods and cities. This study, though, adds to these results by demonstrating the association on a county level. In addition, it indicates that the relationship occurs across all ages in the working population. The research also shows that home ownership in combination with income level better predicts the crime rate than either variable alone. Results from the study give added rationale to county government officials who are seeking to stimulate home ownership among people in their communities.
