Hopping back on bluesky because I had to share my excitement at seeing amazing new @princetonupress.bsky.social books at #ASA2025! From brilliant friends and colleagues @bail3y.bsky.social @lizchiarello.bsky.social @hopeharvey.bsky.social Irene Vega 🤩📚🎉

My kid’s (who is 8) junior soccer league ranks and evaluates every player then has “draft day” where the coaches draft players onto their team 🥴 You don’t find a whole lot that is “chill” about this city!

Too bad the rest of NYC is like:

We at the CUNY Institute of Demographic Research (CIDR) are saddened to share the news that Professor Andrew Beveridge passed away on 10 April 2025, in Washington DC. Andy was a social demographer well known for his expertise on New York and U.S. demographic patterns and trends. 1/

It was older and very white, which is noticeable in NYC. We were leaving the subway station and the guys behind us said the last time they protested was during the Vietnam War in college

In addition to their massive endowment, Columbia would also owe $180 million *annually* in property taxes (as the biggest private landowners in NYC) if they weren’t exempt. I understand there are restrictions / can’t just liquidate assets, but still stunned that they folded over $400 million

I wish I had known about this!

As title suggests, this paper aims to move beyond scale ("big landlord" "mom-and-pop landlord") to provide more theoretical specificity, precision in understanding landlord variation.

While regulation is often based on scale, no reason to assume small landlords are less likely to discriminate.

New #housing paper on landlords:

With co-authors Henry Gomory, Drew Messamore, @philipgarboden.bsky.social, we examine legal, organizational, and econ factors that shape landlord behaviors and practices.

I was part of the panel that discussed rental assistance! Recommendations were made during perhaps more optimistic times, but still proud of the discussions generated through the event. @cuny.bsky.social

@angelamli.bsky.social (who is now on this app) organized a great reunion to kick off #APPAM2024. Loved seeing everyone in DC!

It’s good to see you here! Thank you for organizing the JDP event - great way to kick off APPAM!

we found our unit through streeteasy last year; all broker did was open door for us, pocketed one month rent. if landlords do not want to do showings, they can hire property managers like everyone else in the US!

Starting this list … please respond if you work on US national #housing policy issues too and I will add you! 🙏💙 go.bsky.app/5Xzj7gr

They are so good!

I learned my students do everything on their phones, including making PowerPoint presentations 😳
