In 2005, the Ethiopian government launched apublic housing policy to build hundreds of thousands of residential units for urban dwellers in Addis Ababa. The stated goals of the program were to provide housing for low- and middle-income urban dwellers and support the domestic construction industry. Since its inception, the policy has been massively oversubscribed. Thus far, there have been two rounds of registrations taking place in 2005 and 2013. An estimated 50% of all households in Addis Ababa have registered for the program, with over 900,000 applications to date. Through 2019, nearly 200,000 units had been successfully completed and transferred to residents across 13 lottery rounds. This policy continues to this day -- tens of thousands of new units are expected to be occupied in 2022.
The criteria for eligibility are: (1) only one application per household; (2) the heads of household cannot own property in Addis Ababa; (3) the household must have resided in Addis Ababa for at least six months. Households are free to choose the size of the desired unit but not the location.

Condominiums are allocated via random lottery. In order to be eligible for the lotteries, after submitting an application, the household must open a bank account at the Central Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) and make deposits towards a down-payment. After winning, there is no requirement that the household move into the unit that they win; they are free to rent it out or leave it unoccupied. Winning households may only sell their condominium unit after an embargo period of five years.
We leverage random lotteries for government-subsidized condominiums to identify how neighborhoods of residence and household wealth, each of which change dramatically for lottery winning households, impact medium-run economic, educational, and health outcomes for the children of winning households. This policy functionally reallocates families from low-quality, dense housing in the city center to higher-quality housing on the outskirts of the city. By virtue of their location on the city's outskirts, the areas in which the government-constructed condominiums are located have worse labor market access, less developed social networks, and may have lower quality education and health infrastructure. Relative to programs in the United States and North America that focus on moving families from ``bad" neighborhoods to ``good" ones, the heterogeneity of neighborhood quality along multiple dimensions in the Ethiopian context makes the effects on children's outcomes unclear ex-ante.
Using the list of all condominium registrants, we will draw a stratified random sample of lottery winners and losers. We will stratify by the location at the time of registration, number of bedrooms requested, and applicant gender. For winning households, we will select a subset of condominium sites across rounds in a first step randomization. We will oversample from early lottery rounds to increase the share of children (1) with long exposures to treatment and (2) who have entered the labor market or completed post-secondary education.
Finally, we will extend the structural selection model developed in Kline & Walters (2016) to account for endogenous selection into moving into, renting, or selling the condominium that a household wins. This model interacts the lottery instrument with plausibly exogenous baseline household characteristics in a 2-stage least squares framework to identify models with multiple treatment and fall-back states.
Educational attainment outcomes will be measured as whether a child is enrolled in school, has completed primary school, has completed secondary school, has enrolled in post-secondary education, or has completed post-secondary education. Each of these will only be considered on grade-relevant sub-samples of children. Test scores are measured in grades 8, 10, and 12.
Well-being will be measured based on strength and difficulties questionnaires administered to parents (SDQ). These will be scored following standard SDQ scoring using both the integer and categorical scores. Aspirations are measured by asking children about their desired occupations and educational attainment as well as the likelihood of these desires occuring. We map these responses into cardinal occupation and education aspiration measures. We consider weighted versions of these measures where the weights are determined by the likelihood of occurance. Finally, we combine the two aspirational measures into a normalized aspiration index following Anderson (2008).
Welcome Center greeting tourism partners
The Alabama Tourism Department-Welcome Center Program will be welcoming guests throughout the state to increase the awareness of the economic, social and cultural impact that tourism has on the local, regional and statewide communities. We invite our tourism partners to participate at each Center from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. (central standard time) by bringing special promotions, coupons, etc., and share in our hospitality on the following dates:
Huntsville to host International Downtown Association Summit
Huntsville will host the International Downtown Association Place Branding & Placemaking Summit. This year, Huntsville was selected to be part of an impressive lineup of cities where the International Downtown Association (IDA) will host topical conferences around the globe!
With a vision of creating intelligently designed, innovative, and vibrant city centers, the IDA is a network of community leaders who seek to nurture and advocate downtown neighborhoods around the world.
According to IDA, it requires special attention to revitalize and sustain thriving downtowns; therefore, many cities began forming nonprofit management associations that would fulfill the needs of urban centers to enhance growth, host community events, and market the area as a whole.
Through the network at IDA, members have access to numerous resources including research tools, continuing education, trade publications, and a global network of like-minded individuals who are committed to making downtowns prosperous.
Placemaking and place branding
All it takes is a quick walk through downtown Huntsville to see what makes it so special. Among its colorful alleyways, musical trees, hidden murals, and eclectic annual events, the story of the Rocket City is told in a way that leaves a lasting impression.
Public spaces within urban areas are greatly enhanced with the addition of assets like parks, pop-up markets, rentable bikes, book stations, music, art, and other similar elements. This is where placemaking takes center stage.
Placemaking is the thought and execution that goes into reimagining public spaces. There are several examples in downtown Huntsville including the Clinton Avenue Color Walk, Washington Square Park, the Clinton Avenue piano, the musical trees on the square, and the many murals in the heart of downtown.
Zhang said the visit to the Shoals is part of a larger tour that included stops in New Orleans, Louisiana, Memphis, Tennessee, Birmingham, the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, and various sites in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Chinese visitors were joined by two visitors from France and two from Frankfort, Germany, who were visiting a variety of cities known for their music history. There were also visitors from Colorado and Louisiana on the 10:30 a.m. tour.
Zhang said Chinese people are more familiar with American pop music than the type of music Muscle Shoals is known for, but tour guides Terrell Benton and Chase Brandon gave them a 50-minute lesson in the Muscle Shoals sound.
Hot and Hot Fish Club executive chef Chris Hastings typically gets his early-season tomatoes from growers in Immokalee and Ruskin, FL., by way of his broker at the Alabama Farmers Market on Finley Avenue West.
Before long, though, I came upon glitzy high-rise condominium buildings standing shoulder to shoulder along a broad stretch of sugar-white sand. Then it dawned on me: I was in a something-for-everyone kind of place.
For beach bums and active hikers
Of course, the beach, lapped by the blue-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico, is the reason most people visit Gulf Shores, a town of about 12,000 residents, and nearby Orange Beach, about half that size.
A 27-mile backcountry trail complex, accessible to people with varying abilities, leads walkers past boggy streams and three spring-fed freshwater lakes. Hikers may spot white-tailed deer, an alligator basking in the sun or even a bobcat.
Museums, cruises, fishing
Nearby Fort Morgan, a state historic site, has a 14-mile seashore. Visitors can sit on the beach, bike, fish, kayak, picnic or visit a pentagon-shaped fort, completed in 1834. The structure occupies a strategic location, where Mobile Bay meets the Gulf of Mexico, and was built to strengthen the coastal defense of the United States following the War of 1812.
The site contains historic military buildings; artillery batteries constructed between 1895 and 1904; and a museum displaying uniforms, weapons, photographs and letters of solders who served there. To top it off, the fort fronts the same kind of broad, gentle, snow-hued beach that is characteristic of the area.
Plenty for history buffs
For those who want to learn, not burn, a good place to start is the Gulf Shores Museum, located in a historic beach house. Permanent exhibits tell the story of 19th-century settlers in the area and of hurricanes, including how they originate and how a community rebuilds after a storm.
Battleship Memorial Park, about an hour away in Mobile, is home to the massive USS Alabama, which saw action for 37 months during World War II, as well as a wartime submarine and a collection of historic aircraft.
An hour drive in the other direction leads to the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, FL, the largest such museum in the world. Despite its name, the collection of more than 250 aircraft represents every military branch.
