Measuring the impacts of community development initiatives: A new application of the adjusted interrupted time-series method
Article Abstract:
The adjusted interrupted time-series (AITS) approach is introduced to develop empirical methods for measuring the impacts of place-based local development strategies. The AITS approach is applied to three community development initiatives using single-family home prices as the outcome indicator and it is found that it could measure impacts on both the base level of prices and the rate of price appreciation.
