"The Fortieth Year of the Kinder Houston Area Survey: Into the Post-Pandemic Future." (2021) Rice University and Kinder Institute for Urban Research: https://doi.org/10.25611/hz81-gt44.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/110500For the past four decades, Rice University's Kinder Houston Area Survey (KHAS) has been tracking systematically the continuities and changes in the attitudes and beliefs, opinions, and experiences of Harris County residents. More than 48,000 area residents have been interviewed, and the surveys have revealed important shifts in perspectives during this period of remarkable economic and demographic change. The final interviews for the 2020 survey were completed last year just days before Houston was hit by the yearlong health pandemic, economic shutdown, collapse in oil prices, and the killing of George Floyd, prompting a new sensitivity to systemic racism and concerns about the deepening inequalities in general. The 2021 survey enables us to ask in what specific ways and to what measurable extent have Harris County residents been personally impacted by the events of this remarkable year.engCopyright ©2021 by Rice University Kinder Institute for Urban Research.
