Abstract
  • Rents have been increasing faster than the average income and the term “housing shortage” has been prevalent in media for years. Policymakers around the country are looking into using rent control as a solution to this deficiency in the number of affordable housing. In this thesis, I examine the effects of rent control on a municipality in New Jersey using a difference-in-differences model and American Community Survey data. I find that rent control does not have a significant effect on key housing market characteristics.
