Colorblind retreat
Over recent decades, the United States federal government has funded the purchase and demolition of flood-prone housing across the country through a policy known as managed retreat. As this policy has touched down in areas where residents and government actors look to adapt to growing climate threats, managed retreat has entered housing markets long shaped by racial segregation and become entangled with the ideological frameworks that support and…
The Revolving Door of Risk
Nationwide, flood risks are encouraging local authorities to implement a federal policy known as managed retreat. The program offers homeowners a fair market price to voluntarily relinquish their properties for demolition and move elsewhere, thereby subsidizing residential relocation as a means of climate adaptation. Despite widespread implementation, we know little about how people move or how many move from places where the program intervenes. …
Toxic Fear
Tropical storms and flooding can compromise industrial infrastructures and other land-based hazards in ways that contaminate nearby communities. This study uses novel data from the Houston Area Survey to investigate racial and ethnic disparities in reports of such contamination in metropolitan Houston during Hurricane Harvey and its influence on residents’ long-term worries about future flooding. Results indicate that among those negatively impac…
Under Pressure
In response to the increasing threats posed by natural hazards, both disaster managers and researchers have recognized social networks and trust between communities and government as fundamental building blocks for resilience. However, these efforts often overlook the fact that the same network ties to family and friends that can help households weather a storm may also extend households’ exposure through collective trauma, reshaping their trust …
The multiplicity of impact
This study advances and examines the proposition that social marginalization, especially along racial and ethnic lines, produces compound disadvantages that accumulate across a wide range of personal, social and political domains when climate disasters strike, producing a multiplicity of impact often missed by quantitative research on social vulnerability. To test this claim, we use data collected by the Houston Area Survey after the historic rai…
