This serie s contains data from a study of changes in the physical quality of housing experienced by participants in the Experimental Housing Allowance Program at eight sites. The sites were Bismarck, North Dakota; Durham, North Carolina; Jacksonville, Florida; Peoria, Illinois; Salem, Oregon; San Bernardino, California; Springfield, Massachusetts; and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Data include the number and type of rooms, size, condition of wall, ceiling, and floor surfaces, and electrical and plumbing facilities; and the overall condition of the neighborhood.
