Sociology 498: Homelessness

Marriage and Homelessness

We make five comparisons:

	To other national data to see how typical Rossi's Chicago results are.
	To data on the Chicago non-homeless to see the association between marriage and homelessness
	To U.S. data on the formerly homeless to suggest whether marriage is associated with leaving homelessness.
	To U.S. data on length and type of homelessness to suggest whether marriage is associated with more "severe" homelessness.
