All three of the writers of this article are Sociology professors, the article talks about how moving a community out of a lower income area to better neighborhoods will increase their happiness, helpfulness to society, and their ability to make money and have a job. The people who were moved were moved to safer areas, which allowed them to live longer and live happier. This change caused a drop in crime rate for that area and in turn for the whole city as well. The authors wrote this to inform people on how changes in a person environment can change a person’s whole attitude. This article will help in my study of crime and how to stop crime in low income areas around Atlanta. This article was wrote by professors who are experts on human interaction in societies and communities.
