Affordable housing is one of Atlanta, Georgia’s most pressing, pervasive, and persistent urban planning crises. Additionally, the advent of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the preexisting affordable housing issues across housing security, demographics, the supply and demand of affordable housing policy, and the health of low-income housing occupants. This report aims to address these issues, as they currently persist in Atlanta, and offer recommendations and considerations for their solutions. This document consists of four sections: Affordable Housing Finance in the City of Atlanta, Wealth Divide and Housing, Homelessness, Health & Hazards. A case study of Atlanta’s Healthy Hotel Project, and the Nexus of Housing, Transit, and Jobs. This report was created by graduate students in the master’s in City and Regional Planning Program (MCRP) at the Georgia Institute of Technology in collaboration with multiple local stakeholders. Though this report will not solve the affordable housing issue in the city of Atlanta, it will address the current conditions and numerous challenges associated with affordable housing in Atlanta and will offer a pointed recommendation to create a path toward solutions for these wicked problems.

A Text-Mining and GIS Approach to Understanding Transit Customer Satisfaction

2020-07-24 , Yap, Soo Huey

Performance evaluation is a concept that most can understand. Examples of performance evaluation include evaluating the performance of students in schools via assignments and exams, and corporations and boards evaluating departmental and corporation-wide performance. In many of these instances, the objectives of performance evaluation are clear. In our first example, the aim of schools may be the education of students, and therefore performance evaluation is conducted to measure students’ understanding and learning of the syllabi. In our second example, the aim of corporations may be to improve efficiency (reduce costs) and increase income. Performance measures used by private sector corporations may include number of sales, customer satisfaction ratings, and number of clicks on advertisements.
