I was reading a recent article today that cited a paper that seemed perfect for my research. I went to find the article. It does not exist. Totally made up. Should I let the journal know?

Have you wondered why exactly it is that single-family zoning leads to racial segregation? I wrote this little article to figure it out. I use an agent based model to show it is a combination of race-based wealth inequality, homophily, & clustering of housing types in zoning maps.

Housing politics friends: please give me examples of policies that promote (not just allow for) race or class integration. I'm thinking of things like inclusionary zoning or scattered site public housing. THANKS!

More updates from my massive local politics survey: City = 39% liberal, 36% moderate, 25% conservative Suburbs = 31% liberal, 38% moderate, 31% conservative City = 48% Democrats, 15% Ind., 37% Republican Suburbs = 42% Democrats, 16% Ind., 42% Republican
Just launched an enormous national survey on local politics. First interesting summary statistic: 36% oppose fair housing law!
Just got my 4th article rejection of 2024. The thought of revising and sending all 4 articles back out for review makes me so very tired.

The state animal of Tennessee is the raccoon. Amazing choice.
Delivering a terrible lecture is such a cruddy feeling.
