QEP Writing Assignment 2: Many poor and working-class families dream of living in the suburbs, believing their children will have the opportunity to attend better schools, will have access to non-dead-end jobs, and to escape from the looming threat of urban violence. Consequently, their children will have a better chance of being successful in life. However, many suburbanites balk at the prospect of government-subsidized housing in their neighborhoods. They fear that when poor people move next door crime, drugs, blight, bad public schools and higher taxes inevitably follow. They worry that the value of their homes will fall and the image of their town will suffer.

Prepare a paper that addresses the following:
Does your neighborhood shape who you are? Explain
Would you be a different person if you grew up someplace else? Explain
Should suburbs be mandated to rewrite their zoning laws and allow a fair share of affordable housing? Why or Why Not?

Consider the readings you have been given so far and in your primary and secondary source research, find sources that could argue either side of the debate as to whether these phenomena are real, and if not, what other function do they serve, sociologically, psychologically, culturally or otherwise.

Requirements: APA format (or MLA if you prefer), with both in-text citations accurately integrated, 6-8 pages minimum for the essay, not including cover sheet and References pages. You must include a few direct quotes from the following sources: 1. Class Readings: Which readings do you feel will best help you classify and discuss your chosen phenomenon? 2. Case-Study sources: These can come from news outlets, documentaries, books, or other sources that give first-hand accounts of the events as they unfolded. ? 3. Secondary sources: At least one of any other source referenced in the text for further reading, authors, scholars, philosophers, sociologists, psychologists, etc. You must also visit the library and the Learning Center for this assignment to be sure you have all required sources, that you have structured your research paper in the proper way, offering a true thesis statement, body paragraphs with sources accurately integrated, and References pages accurately formatted.
