Brief description Effective public housing management strategies for rural and regional Australia. Public housing authorities face growing demand for low cost housing from a diversifying range of households. This project addresses three parts of this problem for an emblematic region. It develops robust geographic information systems models to predict low-cost housing demand in rural and regional areas. This major technical advance is situated within studies of institutional behaviours affecting operations of housing authorities. Further the project evaluates public sector influence on housing markets in rural and regional NSW in order to enhance intervention practices. Output also includes three PhDs and applied knowledge of use to public housing authorities alongside academic research outcomes.
