Notes

1 Despite claims by Briggs and Goering/Feins to the contrary, I recognize Briggs’s position in my article (p. 126).

2 Two pieces of evidence highlighted in my article begin to suggest this dichotomy’s falsity: the MTO evaluation showing positive outcomes for even short-distance moves away from public housing and the “neighborhood effects” research showing children’s positive development in a variety of spatial settings (p. 121).

3 The prioritization of income-mixing over affordable housing construction is common among the DC. See, for example, Goetz (2003: 116–117) discussing Orfield.
