The HOPE VI Panel Study research has highlighted that many residents of distressed public housing face severe health challenges.

However, in this brief, we present findings that show that despite these improvements, respondents' health has continued to deteriorate rapidly; the level of reported health problems in 2009 are stunning, and the mortality rate is shockingly high.
