Back to EpisodesNew Study Reveals Police Funding Impacts Home Prices
Description
A groundbreaking new study from the University of Cincinnati reveals that police funding can significantly impact home prices—but the effect depends on the income level of the community. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke breaks down economist David Brasington's findings, which show that increasing police budgets raises home values by 13% in low-income areas, while decreasing them by at least 14% in high-income neighborhoods. Tune in to learn why these opposing trends had been hidden in previous research, and what this means for investors, homeowners, and policymakers navigating the evolving landscape of public safety and property values.
