This study analyzes the factors affecting access to credit to buy social housing of low-income people in Hanoi city. The study uses data from a survey of 500 people who have participated in social housing programs and a regression model based on Heckman's theory and empirical model of people's access to credit. The results show that variables including age, gender, income, marital status, access to informal credit are significant factors affecting the ability to access formal credit and loan amount. From credit institutions to buy social housing for low-income people in Hanoi.

Low-quality social housing can be life-threatening and reduce the quality of life of the settlers (JICA & Hanoi City People's Committee, 2007). For many people, especially low-income people, housing is a huge investment, the amount of money is accumulated over many years or borrowed, so it cannot be used to buy a poor quality house. Meanwhile, due to lack of experience in housing selection, it is not certain that the investment for housing is commensurate with the expected quality. In addition, the information on the quality of social housing projects is provided by the builder itself. Therefore, it is necessary to create a set of quality standards and evaluation system applied to social housing in order to improve the quality of social housing while ensuring that housing prices are within the affordability of this group people. 2022-01-01T00:00:00Z https://digital.lib.ueh.edu.vn/handle/UEH/69552 Title: Does Subsidized Housing Facilitate More Sustainable Commute Patterns? Insights From Canadian Metropolitan Areas Author(s): Skye Collishaw; Markus Moos; Tara Vinodrai Abstract: Housing has become increasingly unaffordable, particularly in amenity-rich and transit-accessible areas. In this paper, we conduct an empirical ana- lysis to investigate the relationship between living in subsidized housing and commuting patterns (mode and distance) in Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. We find that compared to otherwise similar individuals, those in subsidized dwellings have shorter and less auto-oriented commutes at statistically significant levels. The paper positions the discussion on subsi- dized housing in the broader context of the relationship between housing and sustainability, and within specific metropolitan geographies and his- tories of housing policies. In combination with prior research, the findings provide support for policies that promote investment in subsidized hous- ing near transit as an affordability and sustainability strategy, particularly benefiting low-income renters. 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z
