“…Third, public housing and other local welfare policies may have influenced residential choices (Fiva 2009, Tach and Emory 2017). As Xu and Zhou (2019) discuss, the public housing units in Japan's large cities were largely built before 1980. Since then, the aim has been to maintain existing buildings.…”

Our results are consistent with many qualitative studies that have described the discrimination of ethnic minorities by public housing programs across Europe.…”
