When the neighbors are watching: Immigrant integration policy and housing wealth
研究发现移民融合政策对住房财富的影响取决于公众对移民的关注度；高关注时实施会降低住房财富，低关注时则无影响，说明政策效果受公众对移民危机的感知驱动。
We hypothesize and establish empirically that the effects of migrant integration policies on housing wealth are influenced by public attention to immigration. Using a unique policy converting temporary refugee reception centers into integration facilities, we conduct an event study analysis. Our results show that timing matters: implementation during times of high public attention to immigration reduces housing wealth, while implementation during times of low attention has no impact. These findings suggest that the backlash effect of integration policies estimated in the literature may be driven by public perceptions of migration crises.
