The resurgence of interest in rent control has generated public controversy over key questions: Is rent control a viable way to deal with the problems of housing shortages and inflationary costs? Under what circumstances? What methods of regulation are most appropriate and effective in a range of local housing conditions? This comprehensive handbook provides essential information for the on-going debate: a careful analysis of historical precedents; an overview of the conceptual issues, including the benefits, disadvantages, and broader economic consequences of rent control; and an in-depth study of the realities of implementing legislation and operating a rent control system. Empirical evidence from three case studies—Boston, New York, and Fort Lee, New Jersey—is combined with summary data from over 100 other jurisdictions to represent the range of rent control mechanisms.

A century of policy mistakes ruined America’s cities and created an unprecedented housing crisis. For many families, homelessness is no longer someone else’s problem. It is right around the corner, a real threat in their own immediate future. Our housing crisis is the result of a long history of government policies, court cases, and political manipulation. While these disparate causes make up a tangled web, they have one surprising root: the attack on private property rights. For more than a century, government policies and court decisions have attacked, undermined, and eroded private property rights. Whether it be exclusionary zoning, eminent domain abuse, rent control, or excessive environmental regulations, the cumulative impact of these assaults on private property is that it’s become increasingly difficult—or even impossible—to build adequate housing supplies to meet market demands. We are fast approaching a time when millions of typical Americans will, quite literally, have nowhere to live. Nowhere to Live: The Hidden Story of America’s Housing Crisis, takes readers through the history of how we got here. With stories going back to the Civil War, the early twentieth century, and the ill-fated “urban renewal” movement of the 1950s, Nowhere to Live reveals how the government layered mistake upon mistake to create the current crisis. It also provides a way out: not by government fiat, but through the restoration of private property rights.
