This article i felt was important to understanding the issue of not only housing, but also affordability in the Chinatown District in Boston MA. This article talked of how this District was mainly an immigrant area and people have been residing here for 150+ years. This reminded me a lot of the Chicago video on housing as well and what the difficulties are in terms of housing. The fear and issue of affordable housing is a real on in the year 2015. This raises some big questions and issues for the world today. What of these people who live there? Where will they move to or live if they're forced to move out? Also what is being done of this?

Chinatown Outline
Contents
(Demographics) [1]
(community resources)
(Employment) [3]
(Urban Policies)
I believe a decent amount is missing from my wiki page and a lot can either be added or even new sections entirely as well. Sections I would want to add would be: (Education) (Work/Business) (Under the housing section I’d also have an inequality section)
(Attractions)
(Culture) with subsections including food, clothes, celebrations etc.
I believe adding these would be crucial to understanding the population and the culture of Chinatown. Part of what makes this district special is the diversity and the rich culture there and I feel the wiki page lacks and even almost ignores this aspect entirely. What makes Chinatown unique is the culture as well as the diversity and how it all pieces together and I will include all of this in my new sections.
Sources I will be using to obtain this information will be from the US census as well information from statistical sites. Possible articles under Proquest or any housing/ project development sites as well. The sites we looked over in class will also be sites I use for my research. I will try to use both public and private sources as well for my information and get both professional and just general public statements and research to make sure all groups are covered. In the event I find any article that are political I will try to find the opposing political parties opinion on the topic as well.
Hi there,
I know you were interested in improving the history section of your neighborhood page. Books are often the best source of info for history because the format lends itself well to detailing the story of past events/people/places. We have a short book on the history Chinese in Boston (which will include Chinatown) here at SSU Library- click this link and you can text the call number to yourself so you can come in and get the book of the shelf next time you come by or you can place a hold so it is put on hold for you. The history links provided week three in the LibGuide will get you more on history as well.

For my City of Chinatown in Boston MA i feel my changes not only fixed some existing issues, but also gave some new insight into some important pieces of its history as well as give a new light to the city. Some of the new sections include: An (updated) history section, with the section of pornography to be taken out or edited, community resources, demographics, urban policies, community events/celebrations, and business/work. i believe all these sections are all important to someone first learning of this town giving them insight to the types of people living there to how they got there to what and how they make a living. For even those familiar with Chinatown some of these sections i was surprised hadn't been added or discussed at all previously, such as the celebrations/events and the work/business.
