尽管最近的经济衰退和随之而来的住房危机，在过去的几十年里，美国的住房拥有率取得了重大进展;然而，少数民族和移民人口之间的广泛不平等仍然存在。了解几个研究不足的因素对住房结果的作用，包括健康状况和残疾，以及储蓄、投资和其他资产等金融资本的差异，仍然是一项重大的政策举措。虽然过去的研究已经研究了非洲裔美国人白人住房的差距，它也是重要的是要探讨西班牙裔，亚洲人和移民之间的差距。本文回顾了白人和少数民族人口在住房拥有率和住房价值方面的健康和金融资本差异，并为未来的政策研究提供了建议。
Despite the recent recession and accompanying housing crisis, important gains have occurred in U.S. homeownership over the past several decades; however, wide inequalities among minority and immigrant populations remain. Understanding the role of several under-studied factors on housing outcomes, including health status and disability, and differences in financial capital, such as savings, investments, and other assets, remains a major policy initiative. Although past research has examined African American–White housing disparities, it is also important to explore disparities among Hispanics, Asians, and immigrants. This article reviews health and financial capital disparities in homeownership and home values between Whites and minority populations and offers suggestions for future policy research.
