This twenty-five-page undergraduate thesis discusses the ills of public housing and how they are affecting the lives of the financially unstable and economically backward people of the society. It is believed that public housing is the symbol of administrative failure in most cities, more so in the large cities of New York and Chicago where public housing blocks have become centers of crime. The government has over the years developed some plans to eradicate the social problems existing in these areas but unfortunately all such policies and programs have failed to produce any significant positive results. 20 pgs.
