A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: The
Outcomes Evaluation of the Choice
Neighborhoods Program.
OMB Approval Number: Pending.
Type of Request: New collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This
request is for the collection of
information for an outcomes evaluation
of the Choice Neighborhoods Program
(Choice). Choice leverages significant
public and private dollars to support
locally driven strategies that address
struggling neighborhoods with
distressed public or HUD-assisted
housing through a comprehensive
approach to neighborhood
transformation; local leaders, residents,
and stakeholders come together to create
and implement a plan that revitalizes
distressed HUD housing and addresses
the challenges in the surrounding
neighborhood. Launched in 2010,
Choice provides direct investments
through competitive grants targeted to
neighborhoods marked by high rates of
poverty with distressed public or HUDassisted housing. Today, Choice remains
one of HUD’s primary tools to support
planning and implementation efforts to
catalyze redevelopment efforts in cities
across the nation.
Under contract with HUD’s Office of
Policy Development and Research, the
Urban Institute (Urban) is conducting an
evaluation of Choice, focusing on the
neighborhoods that received grants in
2011 and 2013: Quincy Corridor
neighborhood in Boston, Massachusetts;
Woodlawn neighborhood in Chicago,
Illinois; Iberville/Treme´ neighborhood
in New Orleans, Louisiana; Eastern
Bayview neighborhood in San
Francisco, California; Yesler
neighborhood in Seattle, Washington;
Near East Side neighborhood in
Columbus, Ohio; South Norwalk
neighborhood in Norwalk, Connecticut;
North Central Philadelphia
neighborhood in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania; and Larimer/East Liberty
neighborhood in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. The overarching goal of
the current evaluation is to understand
the impact of the Choice program and
the investment it brings, with an
emphasis on understanding the first
cohort of grantees, funded in 2011 and
four additional grantees from the third
cohort of grantees, funded in 2013.
The evaluation will use qualitative
and quantitative methods to answer the
following overarching research
question: Whether public and private
dollars were successfully leveraged to
(1) replace distressed public and

assisted housing with high-quality
mixed-income housing that is wellmanaged and responsive to the needs of
the surrounding neighborhood, (2)
improve outcomes for households in the
target housing, including employment
and income, health, and education, and
(3) create the conditions necessary for
public and private reinvestment in
distressed neighborhoods to improve
amenities and assets. The evaluation is
a follow-up to an initial evaluation
completed by Urban in 2016, and will
employ analysis of administrative/
secondary data, including HUD data, as
well as primary data collection in the
form of a large household survey of
households living in the Choice sites,
and interviews and observations from
stakeholders regarding the Choice
program. In total, Urban expects to field
the survey to up to 2,388 Choice
residents and contact 257 respondents
for qualitative interviews. This
information is necessary to evaluate
Choice and to understand differences
across sites, over time, in different types
of HUD-assisted housing, by grantee
type, and for different contextual
conditions.
