The Neighborhood Impact of Industrial Blight: A Path Analysis

Research Question: 
How industrial blight correlates with the socio-economic and physical characteristics of neighborhoods?


Purpose:
To determine the proximity-effect of industrial blight on the neighborhood, thought of as not an isolated, closed system but a connected entity within the city and the region:
• We fill the void in the literature by a gradation of distance from industrial blight, from ¼ to ½ and ¾ mile. As well, we measure the neighborhood impact of blight for the county as a whole.
• We determine the direct and indirect impact of the industrial site on the neighborhood with a path analysis by using block-group data.
