Abstract
Recent years have witnessed substantial academic research
and policy debate regarding access to homeownership,
particularly among racial and ethnic minorities. While the
aggregate homeownership rate has moved up during the past
decades, blacks and Latinos lagged significantly in attaining
homeownership. Further, the gap between minority and white
households in attaining homeownership widened markedly during
the decade of the 1980s.
