  However, as earlier observed for 1999 (Nelson 2002), the ownership rate of 68.6% among all families with children in 2003 remained significantly below its 1978 high of 70.5%.
  ...
  Rates of homeownership among low-income families with children have been found to be lower in high-cost markets (Nelson 2002; CHP 2004).7 To compare the experience of working families with children to that of the working childless nonelderly in comparably expensive markets, Table 7A and Table 7B examine ownership in markets differentiated by cost burdens for households in two income ranges: the "working" income range and "upper" incomes above 120% of area median.
  ...
  These results confirm and update earlier evidence that low-income families with children have worse housing problems and more need for assistance in moving into homeownership than their childless counterparts (Nelson and Khadduri 1992).
  ...
  As I have discussed in more detail elsewhere (Nelson 2002, 455ff), they suggest that HOME is the current program best targeted to aid low-income families with children become homeowners.
  ...
  6 Studies generally show rising cost burdens among owners over this time period (cf Nelson 2002).

  As a result, the stock of units affordable for those earning between 51 percent and 65 percent of AMI rose by 7 percent from 1991 to 1999, according to 2001 testimony before a House committee by Kathryn Nelson of HUD's Office of Policy Development and Research.Conversely, the number of units affordable to those making less than 50 percent of AMI dropped by 1.3 million and by more than 900,000 units (14 percent) for those earning less than 30 percent of AMI.
  
  "The worst shortages-and technically, in most locations, the only shortages-are of housing affordable to extremely low-income renters," Nelson testified.

  Congressional testimony by HUD's Kathryn Nelson last May, recently posted online, notes that shortages of affordable housing vary greatly by state and within states, but the number of units affordable to low-income renters grew during the 1990s while units affordable for very low-income renters fell.Visit http://www.house.gov/financialservices/050301ne.pdf.
