Abstract
Despite substantial housing problems among Hispanic renters, very little research has been done in this area. Analysis of the 1991 American Housing Survey and other data sources indicates that Hispanics have greater affordability problems, worse housing quality, and worse neighborhood conditions than blacks or whites. White rent control offers some relief, community-based housing programs offer the best hope to alleviate the housing situation of Hispanic renters.
