Cityscape, a HUD policy development and research journal, recently published an article exploring how households in the Moving to Opportunity (MTO) demonstration fared after leaving housing assistance. The study found that participants who left housing assistance for positive reasons fared better in terms of income growth and neighborhood quality than those who remained assisted. However, those who left assistance for negative reasons fared worse than households who remained in public housing or used a voucher to move.
