It offers a comprehensive reexamination of allowance algorithms, to shed light on their objectives and impacts, while also addressing empirical modelling considerations and identifying limitations in literature. Notably, it offers readers a comparative analysis by investigating US vouchers as a reference point. Theoretically, I find housing allowances are typically neither a price nor income equivalent. Housing allowance schemes,mostly being universal in functional form across countries, manifest as <em>personal subsidies</em><span> inverse to resources i.e., some benefit amount minus income deduction. I discover that New Zealand's Accommodation Supplement (AS) manifests as a negative income and wealth<span><span> tax benefit which, over time, is regressive to rents and incomes. Empirically, I estimate the effects of an increase in costs and demand for the AS on rents exploiting a panel of housing markets geocoded using census tracts at Area Unit (AU) level.

Costing NZ$ 5.225 billion over 2006–2013, AS for renters was not demand deterministic and had no significant direct impact on the revenues of low-income landlords. An increase in subsidy demand coincides with possible overcrowding whereas has no impact on increasing rental supply or a move into renting.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":51490,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Housing Economics","volume":"61 ","pages":"Article 101948"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50193953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Efficient land-use planning in the presence of competing land uses requires knowledge of development risk, housing preferences, and the full costs of farmland loss. We conduct a national scale hedonic analysis using the ZTRAX program U.S. housing transaction data to investigate how COVID-19 has affected property prices in suburban and rural areas with farmland at high risk of development, for the purpose of understanding the effects of COVID-19 driven shifts in housing location preferences. Our analysis demonstrates that the pandemic caused differential price impacts across the 33 states that we analyzed. Furthermore, our estimates suggest heterogeneous price effects driven by the characteristics of nearby urban areas, with prices appreciating faster on land at risk located near smaller urban areas than those near larger urban areas. Our analysis finds that the spatial pattern of development pressure on agricultural lands, as measured through transaction prices, changed in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51490,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Housing Economics","volume":"62 ","pages":"Article 101955"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47915162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our work contributes the first nationwide estimate of this relationship for rates of student learning, and to date the most comprehensive nationwide examination for test score levels. We find that there are relatively few affordable housing options near high test score levels schools, but for a substantial range this is driven by the phasing from renter into owner-occupied housing, and the associated rise in down payments.
