Urban housing demography

Abstract

"The purpose of this article is to review the literature in housing demography with emphasis on its geographic aspects." The differences among developed countries concerning patterns of home ownership are noted. "After a short discussion of households as the point of articulation between population and housing, I will examine interurban differentials in housing demography, review various population-oriented and housing-oriented approaches to intraurban housing demography, and finally, discuss the problems of and challenges for geographic research in this field."
