Quote:HUD housing. Back in the 70s and 80s it was decided that rather than cluster HUD housing in one area of town, it would be best to distribute it around every city. The theory being that HUD residents would acquire the socioeconomic habits of the surrounding areas and climb out of poverty and crime. Instead, it had the effect of injecting cancer cells into healthy tissue. If not kept in constant check the surrounding neighborhoods begin to devalue and die.
