Best aspects (respondent's words): I think allowing low-income people in my neighborhood will increase crime. I live next to a forest preserve, maybe 6 neighbors on my block. Allowing people here will make everything worse, crime, racism, bullying, traffic, no parking space, and parties in the forest preserve, but if it is a market rate will be great because our neighborhood will look better, and the cost of the houses will increase, has a home owner is beneficial for a homeowner.
Worst aspects (respondent's words): Only market-rate buildings, or the neighborhood, will increase crime, drugs, a lots of negative stuff that is not good for our kids and families.
