摘要
Single-family rental housing (SFR) is an increasingly prevalent form of housing tenure in U.S. suburban neighborhoods, representing a paradigm shift in how households gain access to a suburban single-family home. This article uses latent profile analysis (LPA) to classify the types of suburban neighborhoods in the 20 largest U.S. metropolitan areas in which high rates of SFR are located. Findings indicate that concentrations of SFR are located in the following types of suburban neighborhoods: diverse middle-class, older white middle-class, low-income Hispanic, low-income black, and affluent. The study finds that the composition of high-SFR neighborhoods among and within metropolitan areas varies substantially. The article examines the variation in the types of high-SFR neighborhoods for the 20 metropolitan areas, then presents a detailed analysis of the spatial distribution of high-SFR neighborhood types in three metropolitan areas.
