Build on What’s Working in for your Community! When stood up next to its Peer Metros, the data makes it clear that Dayton is winning on rental affordability. This is especially the case on general rental affordability (RA) and family households-based RA (AMI-RA).
Renting in Dayton Benchmarking Results:

Points Scored: 13
Top Metrics: Gen. Rental Affordability (RA); AMI-Based RA
Means/Medians:
5.3% above mean in RA / 5.8% above median
0.4% above mean in Black RA / 0.6% above median
5.7% above mean in AMI-RA / 4.7% above median

Shout it Out when your Community falls short! The Dallas MSA is a major southern metropolis, but when placed side-by-side with its housing stability peers, it falls short on homeownership measures. Dallas comes in dead last among its peers on two out of three measures.
Homeownership in Dallas Benchmarking Results:

Points Scored: 2
Bottom Metrics: Homeownership Rate; Black Homeownership Equity
Means/Medians:
$10,896 below mean in Home-buying Affordability Gap/
$4,375 above median in HBA Gap
4.4% below mean in Homeownership Rate (HomeOwn)/
3.8% below median in HomeOwn
7.5% below mean in Black HomeOwn Equity/

Document the Wins for your Community when the data backs you up! Say what you will about Detroit, but what you can’t say is that it has a cost-burdened (CB) households problem compared to its Peer Metros. The Detroit MSA earned a perfect score on the three CB measures.
Cost Burdens in Detroit Benchmarking Results:

Points Scored: 15
Top Metrics: All three in Cost-burdened Households (CB)
Means/Medians:
6.1% below mean in CB / 5.1% below median
2.9% below mean in severely CB / 1.4% below median
2.9% below mean in Black CB / 1.9% below median

Ring the Alarm for your Community when the data speaks loudly! For example, when Pensacola was evaluated with respect to housing stability in comparison to its Peer Metros, a concerning picture emerged for the individuals and families who are renting. Pensacola was dead last on each rent metric.
Renting in Pensacola Results:

Points Scored: 0
Bottom Metrics: All three in Rental Affordability (RA)
Means/Medians: 
12.6% below mean in RA/13.5% below median

22.0% below mean in AMI-RA/37.9% below median

In the final test of Greenville’s true housing stability progressiveness, we analyzed how this metro compares with its peers across metrics tied to the concentration of cost-burdened households. Greenville had a strong showing, certifying an overall low percentage of cost-burdened households.

In the quest to test how progressive Greenville truly is on housing stability, Greenville did well on homeownership measures. But what about rental affordability? The graph below shows that Greenville took a step back.

Greenville shows signs of being a progressive metropolis when it comes to housing stability, so I'm putting these signals to the test by centering Greenville and comparing its housing stability measures with those of its peer metros. First up: homeownership metrics.

From a BBC article:

'Doing what they're told'
Professor Gina Neff, head of the Minderoo
Centre at the University of Cambridge, said the review showed "AI models doing what people told them to".
"The moral of this story is not to fear robots that will take over, but the companies behind powerful AI agents who are making the decisions about what is safe for the rest of us," she said.

As the graph below shows, in the majority of cases mostly disadvantaged neighborhoods have gained a singular foothold in relation to the MSA through higher-than-MSA homeownership rates. At the same time, in over 30 percent of the cases, this single foothold is lower-than-MSA poverty rates.

Continuing on the theme of Metro Atlanta's fully disadvantaged neighborhoods, when it comes to their racial/ethnic demography they are majority-Black, on average (see graph).

Robert Hayden, man.
El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz
(Malcolm X)

O masks and metamorphoses of Ahab, Native Son
I
The icy evil that struck his father down and ravished his mother into madness trapped him in violence of a punished self struggling to break free.
As Home Boy, as Dee-troit Red, he fled his name, became the quarry of his own obsessed pursuit.
He conked his hair and Lindy-hopped, zoot-suited jiver, swinging those chicks in the hot rose and reefer glow.
His injured childhood bullied him.
He skirmished in the Upas trees and cannibal flowers of the American Dream-
but could not hurt the enemy powered against him there.II
Sometimes the dark that gave his life its cold satanic sheen would shift a little, and he saw himself floodlit and eloquent;
yet how could he, "Satan" in The Hole, guess what the waking dream foretold?
Then false dawn of vision came; he fell upon his face before
a racist Allah pledged to wrest him from the hellward-thrusting hands of Calvin's Christ-
to free him and his kind
from Yakub's white-faced treachery.
He rose redeemed from all but prideful anger, though adulterate attars could not cleanse him of the odors of the pit.III
Asalam alaikum!
He X'd his name, became his people's anger, exhorted them to vengeance for their past; rebuked, admonished them,
their scourger who
would shame them, drive them from the lush ice gardens of their servitude.
Asalam alaikum!
Rejecting Ahab, he was of Ahab's tribe.
"Strike through the mask!"IV
Time. "The martyr's time," he said
Time and the karate killer, knifer, gunman. Time that brought ironic trophies as his faith
twined sparking round the bole, the fruit of neo-Islam.
"The martyr's time."
But first, the ebb time pilgrimage toward revelation, hejira to his final metamorphosis;
Labbayk! Labbayk!
He fell upon his face before
Allah the raceless in whose blazing Oneness all were one. He rose renewed renamed, became much more than there was time for him to be.
