Abstract
This paper examines research design plans that establish deteriorated health as an
outcome of public housing residence. Previous research conducted with varying fields has led to
the widespread stigmatization of public housing as an area of desperation and danger. However,
new experimentation is leading researchers to accept public housing as a stable environment.
Evidence from this study finds that research conclusions on public housing and deteriorated
health are either inconsistent or unreliable. This is because much of the resident data on public
housing and health is not interlinked. Therefore, current research design plans for housing and
health lack appropriate data, factor analysis and knowledge of resident behavior. Thus, research
designs must be reformed so they accurately describe resident experience and strengthen
government course of action. This qualitative study will review research on housing and health
for a 20 year period from 2003-2023 to provide usable research design methods that are
progressive to scientists' study of housing and health.
