Racialized Representations of Neighborhood Quality Across 16 US Metro Areas
Posted: 10/14/2021 (CSDE Seminar Series)
This week, CSDE Fellow and UW Sociology Ph.D. Candidate Ian Kennedy will present their research on the relationship between race representation and perceived neighborhood quality as described in online housing ads. Kennedy’s research uses computational text analysis on Craigslist housing advertisements to identify differences in neighborhood descriptions within 16 different metro areas. They find that present perceptions of neighborhood quality are representative of historical racialization of neighborhoods.
