Housing is a critical issue for the working poor. Key findings of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) (2000) analysis show the following:

1. From 1993 to 1998, the number of subprime refinancing loans increased ten-fold.
2. Subprime loans are three times more likely in low-income neighborhoods than in high-income neighborhoods.
3. Subprime loans are five times more likely in black neighborhoods than in white neighborhoods.
4. Homeowners in high-income black areas are twice as likely as homeowners in low-income white areas to have subprime loans.
