Abstract
In this brief, we explore the factors that infuenced relocated public housing residents’ decisions to return or not return to a mixed-income development. Trough interviews with relocated public housing residents of three mixed-income developments in Chicago—Jazz on the Boulevard, Oakwood Shores, and Westhaven Park—as well as a group of residents who chose not to return, we fnd that the following issues signifcantly infuenced resident decision-making: Attachments to place and people; Time pressures and other constraints; Anticipated benefts from the mixed-income environment; Trade-offs and risks associated with moves to mixed-income developments.
